Justin R. G. Holcomb (Old Man) and Joe McCurdy (Ralphie).

If you've ever had to tell your kids 'no' when they made an outrageous Christmas gift request, then this show is for you.

"A Christmas Story," based on the 1983 movie, is sure to have the whole family laughing. All Ralphie Parker wants for Christmas is "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."

Enjoy Ralphie's hilarious misadventures as his family struggles to enjoy an All-American Christmas on the brink of World War II. Armed with an overactive imagination and the wide-eyed optimism of childhood, he creates fantastic schemes to guarantee that he will find a BB gun under the tree, which backfire with hysterical results.
