A Christmas Story
December 6-9, 13-16, 2007

Adapted by Philip Grecian
Based upon the original Movie "A Christmas Story" by Jean Sheperd, Leigh Brown, and Bob Clark
Directed by Mike Crowley
Philip Grecian's play is based on humorist Jean Shepherd's memoirs of growing up in Indiana in the 1940's.  We follow 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder bb gun under the tree for Christmas.  Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher, and even Santa Claus himself, at Goldblatt's Department Store.  Their consistent response: "You'll shoot your eye out!" 

All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family's temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boy's experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie's father winning a lamp shaped like a woman's leg in a net stocking; Ralphie's fantasy scenarios, and more.  Join us at the playhouse for a holiday classic!
