Set in 1940s Indiana, this holiday classic follows young Ralphie Parker, who wants only one thing for Christmas: an official Red Ryder Carbine-Action 200-shot Range Model air rifle. As he schemes to convince his parents, his teacher, and even Santa Claus that it’s the perfect gift, Ralphie navigates schoolyard bullies, a dreaded pink bunny suit, a leg lamp, and all the chaos of the holiday season.
With a heartwarming score by Pasek and Paul, A CHRISTMAS STORY: THE MUSICAL is a nostalgic, hilarious family favorite that captures the magic of Christmas through the eyes of a child.
