Come ready to drink some egg nog and belt out a few carols, while helping us start a new holiday tradition at The Parkway with this beloved classic following the wintry exploits of youngster Ralphie Parker (Peter Billingsley), who spends most of his time dodging a bully (Zack Ward) and dreaming of his ideal Christmas gift, a "Red Ryder air rifle."
Katy Vernon
Katy Vernon was born and raised in London, UK, but in the past dozen or so years has established herself as one of the busiest musicians in Minnesota. Combining melodic pop/folk songwriting with her twangy Americana band, she has appeared with acts such as Dessa, Chastity Brown, Adam Levy, Chris Koza, jeremy messersmith, Mary Bue, Garrison Keillor, and the James Sewell Ballet, in addition to more than 50 shows a year. She also puts on an annual Uke Fest benefit to raise funds for charity. Katy is currently booking her third UK tour and uses her love of singing and playing ukulele to make musical and charitable connections far and wide.
One of the Twin Cities’ most beloved folky singer/songwriters.
