Philly Daily, where my Crime Beat column appears each week, reports that the Walnut Street Theater announced that A Christmas Story: The Musical will be performed from November 18, 2025, to January 4, 2026.
The musical is based on the motion picture A
Christmas Story and on the book In God We Trust: All Others
Pay Cash written by Jean Shepherd
“A Christmas Story: The Musical is
Broadway’s musical comedy gift! A boy named Ralphie has a big imagination and
one wish for Christmas, a Red Ryder BB Gun,” the Walnut Street Theater stated.
“A kooky leg lamp, outrageous pink bunny pajamas, the dogs stealing the turkey,
a cranky department store Santa and a triple-dog-dare to lick a freezing
flagpole are just a few of the obstacles that stand between Ralphie and his
Christmas dream.
“Based on the classic movie, this musical
captures holiday wonder with funny and heartfelt songs, show-stopping dancing,
a pair of mischievous dogs, delicious wit and a heart of gold!”
The music and lyrics are by Benj Pasek and
Justin Paul. The book by Joseph Robinette.
The Walnut Street Theater is located at 825
Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107.
You can call 215-574-3550 for more information.
