NEW YORK – This Christmas, if Ralphie ever actually does shoot his eye out with a Red Ryder BB Gun, don't worry. There's a spare Ralphie.
Johnny Rabe and Joe West, both 12, are taking turns playing the bespectacled, daydreaming hero in a musical stage version of the cult film "A Christmas Story."
Both grew up watching the 1983 movie, both initially auditioned by submitting videos and both are now making their Broadway debuts.
