Westmoreland Performing Arts Has ‘A Christmas Story: The Musical’ at Palace (Fri., 12/22/23)

A CHRISTMAS STORY: THE MUSICAL. Book by Joseph Robinette, based on the story by Jean Shepherd, with music and lyrics by Pasek and Paul. Presented by Westmoreland Performing Arts. December 22 & 23.

Renowned for their collaborative work on Dear Evan Hansen, La La Land, and James and the Giant Peach, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul composed nearly twenty show tunes to help deliver the acclaimed Jean Shepherd tale (see above) onto the Broadway stage. Pasek and Paul’s A Christmas Story: The Musical was developed in 2010 and enjoyed limited engagements in New York the following two years. Nominated for dozens of awards, a national tour quickly ensued and continues seasonally. Greensburg’s Palace Theater welcomes the heartwarming tale of the Parker family’s funny and frantic escapades for two performances only, on Friday evening and Saturday evening just before Christmas. Palace Theatre, 21 W. Otterman Street, Greensburg.  (C.P.O.)
