Taking place in 1940s Indiana, A Christmas Story, The Musical is about young Ralphie, a boy with a big imagination and an ardent Christmas wish to have a Red Ryder BB gun. Pink bunny pajamas, a leggy lamp, and a mean department store Santa Claus all figure into this hilarious holiday tale. The musical stars Dan Lauria (TV's The Wonder Years, Lombardi on Broadway) as Jean Shepherd and Johnny Rabe as Ralphie.
A Christmas Story officially opens on Broadway on November 19. It is a limited run production, scheduled to play through December 30.
