Recent Lobby Upgrades
Just for you, we're sprucing up the theater!
 On your next visit, see if you notice some of our recent upgrades to the lobby concessions area and restrooms. We've tiled the entire back wall of the food area and updated the colors of our menu board. The woman's bathroom has a fresh appearance as the outdated wallpaper has been replaced with a professionally textured wall and ceiling finish. Also, the most popular upgrade according to our recent guests are the new xcelerator hand dryers in both the Mens and Womens restrooms. They'll blow you away at how fast you can now dry your hands. The changes are designed to give the theater a cleaner look and make your visit as a patron much more enjoyable.

 We'd be left in the dark if it wasn't for the skillful spotlight artistry of Bonnie Frerking. She dedicated many years of her career as an elementary school teacher but became involved in the entertainment industry to assist both of her talented daughters who performed in numerous production shows in Branson. Her youngest daughter April, trained Bonnie on her 1st spot light about six years ago and she's been at it ever since.
