"I loved the show."
I loved the show. I had read the book and had seen it a number of years and have always want to come again and see it. It was well worth it. Hope to bring more of my family to see it.
Thank you for still doing it.

"...there's a great view."
I made my reservation for a day that the weather wasn't good, so the lady asked if i could come back the next day and i said i could. She made a note on my reservation. The next day was much better, and there's a great view. Will probably be back during a different season.

This activity was the highlight of our trip. The food and music was fantastic. We really enjoyed the event. We have never heard of the story of the shepherd of the hills. This was a very informative event for us. We met with the cast and was able to get more information. We would love to visit again.

We have been to shepherd of the hills many, many times over the 55 years of our marriage. We went to see this show on our honeymoon trip. This year it just wasn't the same. We love the story and have always enjoyed the show. I just can't put my finger on why it wasn't the same.

The whodunit hoedown was a great show. Kept us laughing. The food was okay. Wish they had beverages for sale though. Some do not like iced tea or water and allergic to citrus so lemonade is out of the.

"Great set."
Great set. Good costumes. Most actors quite good - wash gibbs, dad, sammy, old matt, aunt molly. I read the book last year and was delighted to see that the play followed the book, which the john wayne movie did not

We loved the whodunnit hoedown murder mystery dinner show!! I went with my wife and 3 kids, which included our 14-year old boy, 12 year old girl, and 7 month old girl and we all had a great time! The cast is hilarious! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The food was amazing! It was so good that i wanted more! They did a great job interacting with the crowd.
Tip: If you get a seat in the first few rows, you might get called on to be a part of the show provide your party with extra laughs at your expense! )

"Great acting!"
Great acting!! Could hear every word and see all the action!! A little disturbing for young kids, considering the killing, the hooded horsemen, the ghost. I didn't see any warning for young children posted. We didn't have young children with us, but as a retired teacher i was concerned.

We loved shepherd of the hills drama!
To make it even better, they could be selling popcorn & cold drinks through the crowds while people are waiting for it to start & at break time. Also it would make it fun if they would make a little deal if someone is celebrating a special occasion birthday, anniversary, honeymoon etc.

"Our seats were great."
Our seats were great. No problems there. We had difficulty hearing the actors and we are both young adults. I would recommend that people brush up on the story before going to the show.

Good show, but not for the handicapped. The restroom facility at the theater was totally inadequate. The wheelchair ramps to and from the handicapped section were too steep and dangerous. We paid for vip seating, which are not handicapped accessible, so we had to sit in the handicapped section as my wife is confined to a wheel chair. The tram ride after the show was too fast, and dangerous. I would not recommend this show for anyone else in a wheel chair.

They were very accommodating, taking my elderly mother down to the front so she could avoid stairs, and taking us back to the car after the performance. It really 'saved' us.

"It really speaks to what Branson is all about "
The old mill theatre was very good. It portrayed the shepherd of the hill very, very well. The theatrics was somewhat amateur, but homegrown and refreshing and honest. It really speaks to what branson is all about - genuine people and love of decency, honor and faith.
