Shanghai Circus, at the Mickey Gilley Theatre. Branson, MO. Sept, 2026…read more My husband and I got VIP tickets (front row, center) for this performance, and we were both mesmerized by every single one of the many performances in the Grand Shanghai Circus. This fast-paced show featured Acrobatics and Balance (chair balancing, rolling cylinders, ...), Aerial and Strength feats (Chinese pole, duo silk aerials), Juggling and Object Manipulation (balls, jugs, and umbrellas), traditional Chinese mask-changing, hoop diving, tumbling, and more. This is a professional show with a very talented and engaging cast (I counted 12 performers), a beautiful series of stage backdrops, well-synced Chinese music, and dramatic lighting. The show is offered every day of the week. It runs about two hours, with a 15-minute intermission. Parking is free and plentiful. I would recommend it for adults and children; it's family-friendly. Tickets are currently $50 for VIP seating, $48 for all other seats, but there are bargains to be found on Groupon. Staff are the theater were friendly, and there are concessions as well as a gift shop. The only minor thing to say about the experience was that the seats became a bit uncomfortable after sitting in them for 2 hours.

Even though some parts were more appealing to adults, our kids still really enjoyed the show and had a great time. The food was good, the atmosphere was lively, and the entire production was well done. It was a fun experience for the whole family and definitely something different from the usual attractions. Overall, we had a wonderful time at Dollywood's Stampede and would definitely recommend it. A great show for adults, with plenty of entertainment for kids too!

We arrived to Sight and Sound an hour and 10 minutes early which was crazy to us!! but we did all…read moreof our shopping beforehand and knew we wanted to be a minimum of 30 minutes early.... let me say, I am SO HAPPY we went inside an hour before. We got close parking to the building and near the exit. When you enter; we went to the right side of the building. Once we got there, we took a picture in front of the building. Inside, we weren't rushed to go to the bathroom & get some concessions. We sat in the upper deck in the middle. Specifically, row KK seats 53 & 54. I've been to Sight and Sound 2 other times and sat in the lower seats... I think I would prefer to sit lower.... Up top, we could see everyone's phones on, people having to stand up and leave- which I know is so picky of me but I would pay the extra money to sit lower. I will say, a perk of sitting up top is the bathrooms and exit way to the lobby that is quicker to exit & way less crowded! The only thing is concessions aren't served upstairs (I think, not for sure on this) We saw David! My theological nerd of a husband had some beef with wanting more exposition especially with Solomon and the temple but I thought it was great use of the limited time they have! They walked us through his young boy years, Samuel anointing him, his relationship with Saul & Jonathan, hiding in the cave, becoming king, Bathsheba, and ended with his confrontation with Nathan and a redemption song. The emphasis was on David wanting to know God's heart and be known by God intimately. Really spoke to me personally in this season. I do think seeing Jesus was my favorite because it's the gospels. My husband says his favorite is Esther. But honestly, anything you see will be good. The ushers are amazing! They were keeping an eye out on anyone who needed anything-even working in the pitch dark to escort parents or children out. They have quiet rooms for families in the back & good seating for those in wheelchairs or anything else. At the end of the show, they have cast members and S&S staff available to pray with anyone who needs anything & they do an altar call for salvation, which is EPIC! They give space for people to encounter God and be walked through prayer.

Legends in Concert [Covid-19 Edition]…read more We saw Legends In Concert perform in this venue. The lobby is a nice size that included a snack bar to the left (popcorn, drinks, etc). A little further down to the right is the box office and just adjacent is a gift shop. Also at the lobby are life-size statues of The Blues Brothers and Marilyn Monroe... during Covid times you will see them wearing their masks on. The lobby is clean! Inside, the theater is huge, almost to the likes of some of the entertainment venues in Las Vegas. We were directed to our seats by the theater usher, all contactless. The seats were soft and comfortable. The spacing was good, at least for us. We were lucky to have good seats, we had a great view of the stage. Since we are in pandemic times the seats were assigned following social distancing guidelines. The rows in front and behind us were all blocked and there were 8 empty seats per each party of guests on each sides. The seating were staggered so there were no heads blocking our views. It was great! The huge parking lot can accommodate lots of cars. Look for The Blues Brothers' Bluesmobile, a replica of the 1974 Dodge Monaco sedan is sitting right outside of the theater.

If shows are your scene, then this venue has a lot of discount and season pass programs. If you lived close enough to take advantage of it then it's a good deal. There's drinks and snacks for purchase but you'll have to deal with the challenging situation of wrangling kids and no cup holders. They have boosters for kids which is good because the gradient of seats is very gradual. I'm an adult and couldn't see a thing over the person in front of me, I missed several parts of the show, so it didn't feel worth the purchase. We watched the pet show. We spent around $200 for a family of six. Couldn't leverage the family pass with mom as a third adult. The first 25 minutes was inviting the audience to tell jokes and going over show rules. I could do without the host's political, gender diversity, pet death and mental health and cognitive jokes in a show meant for kids but I'm not a Midwest native so this might be area normal? It was cringy. I would have picked a different show if I knew ahead with two neuro diverse children. When the pet handler, Valari, conducted the cat and dog show it was very entertaining and he did a good job. The first part lasted eight minutes and later a three minute costume and country themed pet segment, interspersed with the host. Then intermission. I will say thank you for merchandising on stage. I have been to shows where staff walk around and literally put toys in your kids face before you agreed to purchase them creating a frustrating situation. So thanks for not doing that! There was a parrot fly by with beautiful macaws for 1.5 minutes and a husky dog segment for 3.5 minutes. There was a pretty funny parody song of Home with lyrics about car trips and family life. There was fun final cat show for about 7 minutes. It's a good show for little kids albeit a bit long for them to sit. Wouldn't want less of the 25 minutes of pet show in an hour and a half time slot but there are other opportunities to cut back some time.

We saw the live radio show which was being recorded live then it would be broadcasted at a later date. It was interesting to be part of that and the behind-the-scenes for a taping like this. Tickets for this particular show were $10 for adults which was not bad. We sat towards the middle and on the right side. The view was still good and I was still able to see the band and singers perform. The volume was just right and not too loud. I enjoyed the show which lasted about one hour. Come check it out!

Stevie Lee was in the lobby greeting everyone ,shaking hands ,talking ,having conversations with people before the show started. He sang country and classic rock and really did a great job. The only thing I didn't care for in the show was the two little dancer girls that look like they were about 15 years old. Surely they were older, but they didn't look it and that just seemed a little creepy to me. We had a member of our group encounter a medical emergency and our group had to get up and leave. You're talking 36 people just stand up and start filing out and I'm sure it had to freak them out lol ! when we arrived at the bus, Stevie Lee was at the bus as well. Just checking on us and making sure that everything was OK and asking if there was anything he could do to help us. I was really impressed with that. You should definitely go see him!
