    A Christmas Story is a must see!

    by CarolinaGirl74 on 12/2/11Progress Energy Center Raleigh Memorial Auditorium - Raleigh

    If you enjoy watching the movie every year, you will LOVE the musical. The way they incorporated the narrator and radio sound guy into the musical was fantastic. It was like watching the movie come to life before my eyes. There were a handful of differences but for the most part, it is everything you know and love from the 1983 Christmas classic. The music was entertaining, the cast was outstanding. I would love to make this a yearly Christmas tradition for my family.

    A Christmas Story was GREAT!!

    by GummyBearCupcake on 12/1/11Progress Energy Center Raleigh Memorial Auditorium - Raleigh

    It was fun, and had me smiling the entire time. I think having young kids do most of the acting made it extra special, but it was an adult show that kids would also enjoy. Ralphie and the rest of the kids cast were great, and Ralphie's Mom and Dad were amazing and had tons of energy. The stage was well done, the narrator and sound effects guys were part of the show too - it was 2.5 hours of FUN!

    The Christmas story

    by into39 on 11/15/11Hershey Theatre - Hershey

    One of the best musicals I've seen! I couldn't imagine how they'd make the movie into a musical. I enjoyed it better than the movie. The acting was superb!

    Ralphie to the Rescue

    Truly a smashing rendition of this classic TV movie. The music is to die for and every member of the cast was amazing! The children's ensemble was outstanding. Ralphie was super - and the understudy at that!

    WOW!!

    by Jenzibaba on 11/15/11Hershey Theatre - Hershey

    This was a great musical. The children that were casted for this musical were amazing and very talented. There were some great points of humor, but there were mushier and more touchy feely moments in the musical than what was in the movie. The musical had a very positive message at the end which really put you in the Christmas spirit. The story line was very close to the movie, but I think that they left some important parts out. Overall, I still enjoyed it and would most definitely see it again. I recommend this to any “A Christmas Story” movie lovers or just anyone who enjoys a good musical.

    The Christmas Story _ A Musical

    by Johnvs2 on 11/15/11Hershey Theatre - Hershey

    GREAT!! A wonderful adaptation of the classic Jean Shepherd story. Very well done. The actors all had great singing voices and the music was right on target for the theme. The singers, the sets, and the entire production surpassed my expectations. I would certainly attend this performance again, hopefully with additional family members, for all to enjoy. Very entertaining production.
