"A Christmas Story, The Musical has the challenge of honoring a beloved holiday film while also delivering its own theatrical magic, and Arizona Broadway Theatre's production succeeds beautifully. Set in 1940s Indiana, the show humorously sweeps the audience into Ralphie Parker's quest for the perfect Christmas gift. Warm, funny, and filled with charm, and with an exceptional performance by Jackson Beeson as Ralphie, ABT's production captures the spirit of the season while celebrating the timeless tale of childhood wishes and family memories." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
"Now lighting up the Arizona Broadway Theatre stage in Peoria through December 28 is a big-hearted, crowd-pleasing production that wraps nostalgia, comedy, and a festive score into one joyful package: A CHRISTMAS STORY: THE MUSICAL. The story centers, as ever, on young Ralphie’s singular laser-like focused holiday obsession: a Red Ryder Carbine Action 200-shot Range Model air rifle “with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time.” That wish powers the story like Christmas Eve adrenaline." - David Appleford, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
