Set in an indeterminate year of the 1940s, Ralphie Parker is a nine year-old boy living in the small town of Hohman, Indiana. His older self narrates his experiences and thoughts through the short weeks before Christmas. As he, a few friends, and his younger brother Randy look into the display window of a local store, Ralphie has his eyes set on the only item he wants for Christmas; an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle, with a compass in the stock and “this thing which tells time”. He sets to convince the world this would this is the perfect gift. But along the way, he runs into opposition from his parents, his teacher, and even good Ol’ Santa Claus himself. All telling him “No, you’ll shoot your eye out”

Performances will be held December 5-7 and 12-4, 2014.
