TPAC discounts for Manheim Steamroller, 101 Dalmatians and A Christmas Story

Posted 10/30/2009

The 101 Dalmatians Musical is an experience for the entire family about what it means to be a family, canine and courageous. More than a simple story about good versus bad, the family bands together to overcome every hurdle and hardship in the most difficult times.  The 101 Dalmatians Musical will transport audiences to a slightly topsy-turvy, exciting, and altogether fantastic reality that gives grand license for song, dance and spectacle in a one-of-a-kind show that will leave everyone cheering.

Discounted performances of The 101 Dalmatians Musical are Wednesday, Jan. 20 at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 21 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Jan. 24 at 1 p.m. and 6: 30 p.m. This great offer ends Jan. 18 (or while tickets last).
 
Humorist Jean Shepherd's A Christmas Story, a memoir of growing up in the midwest in the 1940s, follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his unflappable campaign to get Santa (or anyone else) to give him a Red Rider carbine-action, 200 shot range-model air rifle. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher and even Santa Claus himself, at Goldblatt's Department Store. The consistent response: "You'll shoot your eye out." All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family's temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys' experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie's father winning a lamp shaped like a woman's leg in a net stocking; Ralphie's fantasy scenarios and more. This irresistible piece of Americana is guaranteed to warm the heart and tickle the funny bone.

Discounted performances of A Christmas Story are Wednesday, Nov. 25 at 6:30 p.m., Tuesday, Dec. 1 at 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 10 at 6:30 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 19 at 2:30 p.m.  This great offer ends Nov. 23 (or while tickets last).
