Description

Written by Philip Grecian. Based upon the movie written by Jean Shepherd, Leigh Brown and Bob Clark. Directed by Chris Smith

Christmas is a time of great expectations, especially through the eyes of a child. For nine-year-old Ralphie Parker, that great expectation is a genuine Red Ryder 200 Shot Carbine Action Air Rifle. No self-respecting cowboy would be without one. Unfortunately, his mother, teacher and even the Santa Claus toiling away at Goldblatt’s Department Store have the same reaction to his Christmas wish: “You’ll shoot your eye out!” But for Ralphie, the longing for that special BB gun symbolizes maturity, responsibility, adventure and manhood. Based on the touching and wacky film that has become a modern day holiday tradition, A Christmas Story returns to delight the whole family and fill you with the spirit of the season.
