On the Stanley Subaru Stage

Sponsored by H&R Block of Ellsworth & Bucksport

• Directed by Nick Turner, Musical Direction by Stephanie Bradshaw.

• Accompanied by Rosemary Osann.

Based on the movie classic that runs round-the-clock on television every Christmas. Set in the 1940s in the fictional town of Hohman, Indiana, the musical follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker and his quest for the Holy Grail of Christmas gifts—an Official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot Range Model air rifle. A Christmas Story, The Musical will bring an exciting new dimension to those who have seen the movie and will certainly stand on its own for those who haven't.
