Everyone loves their favorite Christmas movie at The Strand, but
due to the most recent state-mandated occupancy restrictions, we
can only sell 30 tickets per show. This weekend, we've added
additional screenings of A Christmas Story. Make your
reservations ASAP before they all sell out!
In the 1940s, a young boy named Ralphie attempts to convince his
parents, his teacher and Santa that a Red Ryder BB gun really is
the perfect Christmas gift.
The people of Cleveland were incredibly cooperative during
filming, donating antique vehicles from every corner of the
city. These vintage vehicles helped to enhance the authenticity
of the production design. During the filming in downtown
Cleveland, the antique automobile club members, whose cars were
used, were given a route to follow on Public Square. They were
instructed to continue circling the square until otherwise
instructed. Road salt was a major concern for the car owners and
the cars were pressure-washed after each day's filming and
parked underground beneath the Terminal Tower.
In 2005 the original home used for the exterior shots of the
family home was put up for auction on eBay, and avid fan of the
movie Brian Jones purchased it directly from the seller for
$150,000. Jones then spent the following year restoring the home
to the way it looked on screen. The exterior was completely
restored and the interior was renovated to match the interior of
the home shown in the movie (parts of the interior were actually
filmed in a Toronto studio). On November 25, 2006, the home
finally opened its doors as a tourist attraction. Jones spent
close to $500,000 in preparation for this grand opening. In
addition, he also purchased the house next door and converted it
to a gift shop and museum dedicated to the film and the house.

BRING A
GIFT TO THE STRAND
TO BRIGHTEN A
CHILD'S CHRISTMAS
|
 |
|
|
Every year
since The Strand
reopened in 2009, we
have hosted the
Glade Run Lutheran
Services Toy
Drive kick off with
free screenings of
The Polar
Express.
Families were
admitted free when
they brought a new,
unwrapped gift or
gift cards to the
theater.
Like so many charity
events, this year's
program was
cancelled due to
COVID, but the kids
still need your
support. Through
December 11, we're
collecting gifts on
their behalf.
Anytime you visit
The Strand, please
bring a gift or gift
card, and drop it in
our collection bin.
Your generosity can
help brighten the
holiday for a child
in need.
Glade Run Lutheran
Services provides
life-changing
services to over
4,000 individuals
throughout Western
PA. |
