SUMMARY:A Christmas Story the Musical
DESCRIPTION:Experience the charm and humor of A Christmas Story The Musical at the Walnut Street Theatre this holiday season. \nJoin Ralphie and his family and experience their hilarious antics. Although he only has one holiday wish to get a Red Rider BB gun on Christmas morning\, Ralphie finds himself foiled at every turn by broken eye glasses\, neighborhood meanies\, and his goofy family. Will he get his wish or “shoot (his) eye out?” Find out at Kids Night at the Walnut on December 2nd\, when one child ages 17 and under can get a free ticket for every paid adult ticket—call the theatre for details.
