The bells are ringing, carolers are singing, and Goldblatt's Department Store is bustling with holiday excitement! Come, and be a part of the celebration as Orlando Repertory Theatre presents the timeless holiday classic A Christmas Story, running November 21- December 21.
A stage adaptation based on the award-winning and time honored film, A Christmas Story follows 9 year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher and even Santa Claus himself, at Goldblatt's Department Store. The consistent response: "You'll shoot your eye out." All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family's temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys' experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie's father winning a lamp shaped like a woman's leg in a net stocking; Ralphie's fantasy scenarios and more.
