A Christmas Story
November 30 – December 23, 2007

By Philip Grecian; Based on the classic motion picture written by Jean Sheppard, Leigh Brown and Bob Clark

A first-ever Richmond stage production of an endearing holiday film favorite! This classic tale is true to the original film which for many years has amused and warmed so many hearts. Set in the 1940s, it is the story of a middle-class Indiana family at Christmas time. Young Ralphie is on a quest for the Holy Grail of Christmas presents: "a genuine Red Ryder 220-Shot Carbine Action Air Rifle." You’ll recognize all the beloved scenes such as Ralphie in atrocious pink bunny pajamas and a classmate’s tongue frozen to the school flag pole. A Christmas Story is the comic relief you’ll need during a hectic holiday season!

Who would have guessed that Rumpelstiltskin would marry the miller’s daughter? Or, that they would have a daughter who could spin magic of her own? With courage, wit, and some ingenious tricks, Rumpelstiltskin's Daughter changes a greedy king and saves an entire kingdom. Join us for this wacky and wonderful new musical that has been described as a "stylistic cross between Disney's Beauty & the Beast and Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods."
