Based on the iconic 1983 film and Jean Shepherd's semi-autobiographical stories, "A Christmas Story" transports theatergoers to 1940s Indiana, where young Ralphie Parker dreams of receiving a Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas. Narrated by the adult Ralphie, the play follows his hilarious and touching escapades as he navigates school bullies, a quirky family, and the overwhelming desire for the perfect Christmas gift.

Director Kevin Harris brings a wealth of experience and passion for storytelling to this production, ensuring a faithful adaptation that captures the essence of Shepherd's original narrative. From the whimsical set design to the nostalgic costumes and evocative lighting, every detail has been meticulously crafted to immerse audiences in the magic of a 1940s Christmas.

The talented cast, led by Ben Abbott as Ralph Parker, embodies these beloved characters with warmth and authenticity.
