A Christmas Story at The Parker Performing Arts Center: PACE Center

December 3, 2011 By Chrissy Morin Leave a Comment

A new classic Christmas holiday production has come to Parker this week…

A Christmas Story

If you braved the wind and the cold last week for the Mayor’s Tree Lighting you might have gotten to glimpse the stars of the show and see a short scene from the production.

This holiday season, America’s #1 Christmas movie comes to life on the PACE Center stage as a hilarious comedy. You can ask for a Red Ryder BB Gun, but don’t count on it because “you’ll shoot your eye out!”

There are tickets still available for most performances which can be purchased here.
