Then you'll love this live performance. See this classic tale of Christmas excitement as seen through the eyes of children December 5th through the 21st on the ACT Main Stage at Art Centre Theatre Plano.
Based on the stories of author Jean Shepherd, we reminisce with 9-year old Ralphie in the weeks leading up to Christmas. His heart is set on one thing, a Red Ryder BB gun, much to the dismay of his mother. Even the department store Santa Claus seems sour on the idea. "You'll shoot your eye out!" becomes a common refrain. Christmas morning finally arrives, and it looks like he will be disappointed, but his dad saves the day, and the now delighted Ralphie takes his treasured toy outside. Tickets are only $15.
