Wonderful harmonies and lilting melodies will fill the air as these talented singers take us on a breathtaking musical journey which includes some Opera, Jazz, Pop, Swing and of course all our favourite Irish Classics. Add to that the frenzied skill and military precision of these Irish dancers, it will be quite the show! Next we head to the beginning of the Branson phenomena, The Shepherd of the Hills, for a BBQ lunch followed by an interesting tour of their historic, 160-acre farm. An open-air, Jeep-drawn tram will help us explore this beauitful place, which is where a Christian minister settled in the early 1900s and wrote the famous “The Shepherd of the Hills” book. We’ll also take a glass elevator up to Inspiration Tower’s enclosed obserbation deck for amazing panoramic views.

Following breakfast, we’re treated to a hilarious Gospel musical comedy. Set in North Carolina in 1938, Smoke on the Mountain follows the Sanders Family Singers as they perform at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church’s Saturday Night Gospel Sing! Meet a talented family…quirky, flawed and uniquely entertaining! Become the congregation and enjoy over 30 classic gospel tunes that bring us all back to a much simpler time. Laugh at their crazy antics, sing along and witness a heartwarming conclusion that reminds us all what it means to be a family. Lunch is on your own in downtown Branson. Next we’re guests at the beautiful Sight & Sound Theatre for “Queen Esther.” Set in the opulent yet perilous Persian Empire, it is a captivating tale of beauty and bravery. Esther’s ordinary life changed forever when she was taken through the palace doors, entering a new world of royalty and risk. With a crown on her head and a secret in her heart, can she find the courage to trust in God’s plan and believe that she was made for such a time as this? Then we dine at Uptown Cafe before a free evening.
