This holiday hit becomes your newest yuletide tradition as Ralphie Parker and company make their triumphant return to the O’Reilly Theater stage. The amazing memories and moments made famous by the movie, from disastrous family meals — to sticky situations in the schoolyard — to fateful and funny visits to Santaland come to life, sparking nostalgia for ages 9 to 99. This production is not just a Christmas story, it’s our Christmas story.

Rating: PG for allusion to explicit language, brief and mild violence on stage, themes of bullying, and romantic innuendo. Suitable for most audiences with guidance urged for pre-teens.
