A Christmas Story Dinner Show in Branson, Missouri combines a live play based on the beloved holiday movie with a meal. Find out how to save money on a ticket. We’ll tell you how later.
But first, let’s talk more about this experience. A Christmas Story Dinner Show takes place at the Shepherd of the Hills’ Playhouse Theatre in Branson.
A Christmas Story Dinner Show is available on select nights. It takes place on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in November and on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays in December. The first show of the season is Monday, November 2, 2026. The last show of the season is Saturday, December 26, 2026.
As for the show, it stays pretty true to its source material. It still follows 9-year-old Ralphie on his mission to get a new Red Ryder BB gun on Christmas morning. You’ll get to see some of the most classic scenes from the movie. That of course includes the tongue stuck to the flagpole scene and the scene where Ralphie wears the bunny pajamas. And of course, you’ll see the leg lamp!
The show lasts approximately two hours. During the show, you’ll get to enjoy a delicious meal!
