A Christmas Story Dinner Show

Branson, MO is an idealistic place to visit during the holidays, as it offers some of the best Christmas entertainment including Christmas dinner shows like Shepherd of the Hills' A Christmas Story Dinner Show. Fill up on amazing food and the heartwarming tale you know and love during your Christmas visit to the Ozarks.

The show remains true to the classic Christmas tale, A Christmas Story. Follow young Ralphie Parker, a precocious 9-year-old with only one thing on his Christmas list - a Red Ryder BB Gun. Each time he brings it up, though, he gets the same response - 'You'll shoot your eye out, kid!'

During the play, visitors will be treated to all of their favorite scenes from the movie. From Ralphie getting his tongue stuck on the flagpole to the infamous leg lamp. You'll laugh along as the beloved bunny suit makes its appearance and Ralphie squares off with the school bully. As a longtime favorite and one of the most beloved Christmas classics, this play is sure to delight all ages. All of the fun takes place at Shepherd of the Hills Historic Homestead at its Playhouse Theatre.

About the Meal

Since this is a dinner show, visitors will also be treated to a delicious holiday meal during all of the fun festivities. Feast on glazed ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, and sweet apple pie - all homemade by the Shepherd of the Hills' chefs. 

About Shepherd of the Hills Historic Homestead

The Ozark Mountains provide some of Missouri and Arkansas' most breathtaking scenery. The location immediately became an inspiration to many creative minds who visited, thanks to its expansive forests and beautiful rivers. Harold Bell Wright was one of these people, and he was so taken with the place that he wrote a novel called Shepherd of the Hills based on what he observed. Guests can marvel at the magnificent Ozark Mountains and experience what Harold Bell Wright saw and fell in love with in the early 1900s with Inspiration Tower and the other attractions at Shepherd of the Hills.

Visitors will be able to visit the farmhouse during the Christmas season to view the lovely Ozark hills lit up with stunning Christmas lights. During the holiday season, visitors can witness the Shepherd's Christmas Carol play, marvel at God's handiwork, and have a blast at North Pole Adventure, where the kids can meet Santa and participate in festive activities. This year, start some new traditions!

To experience the Christmas spirit for the season, be sure to book your tickets to A Christmas Story Dinner Show! Of course, you can enjoy some other awesome holiday endeavors in Branson, from Christmas lights rides to shopping at the Branson Landing.
