Get the whole family excited for the holidays by seeing A Christmas Story the Musical this December at the Decatur Civic Center presented as part of Theatre 7’s 60th Anniversary season.
The musical, which is based on the classic 1983 holiday movie, received rave reviews during its Broadway run. Set in the 1940s in Indiana, the musical follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker on his quest for the perfect Christmas gift — an Official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot Range Model air rifle! All the iconic moments from the movie you know, and love are here: Dad’s infamous and racy leg lamp, mother’s bar of soap, Flick getting his tongue stuck to the flagpole, Randy’s voluminous snowsuit, bullies, a disastrous Christmas dinner, and much more. The songs range from gentle ballads to show-stopping full-ensemble numbers such as “A Major Award,” “Up on Santa's Lap,” and the inevitable "You'll Shoot Your Eye Out!"
