A Christmas Story – San Diego Musical Theatre, San Diego

About this event

Nine-year-old Ralphie Parker wants one thing for Christmas, and one thing only: An Official Red Ryder Range Model Carbine Action BB Gun. There is only one problem: everyone else is convinced he will shoot his eye out. Undeterred, he begins his saga of convincing all the necessary players, from his sweet and protective Mother, to his straightlaced teacher, Miss Shields, all the way to Santa Claus himself, that he needs that gun for the protection of his loved ones, and maybe even a little cowboy glory to call his own. The production is filled with showstopping numbers, thrilling tap routines, and plenty of quirky and loveable characters. This nostalgic musical is presented as a delightful holiday experience for the whole family.
