A Christmas Story: The Musical
Audiences follow young Ralphie Parker in 1940s Indiana as he schemes to receive an official Red Ryder air rifle for Christmas. The stage production features splashy dance numbers and original songs from the songwriting team behind Dear Evan Hansen and The Greatest Showman. Memorable scenes come to life, including the infamous leg lamp, pink bunny pajamas, and a frozen flagpole dare.
