Southern Gospel Sundays - The Frosts

5/12/2024 – Barb Willkomm –

All I can say is wow. This is not your normal southern gospel show. Southern Gospel Sunday is put on by Michael Frost and his family is an excellent way to end your Sunday afternoon.

Not only will you be listening to some of the southern songs in the hymns from the past, you also listen to Michael’s greatest songs that he has written as well.

He’s accompanied by his wife, Jennifer and his daughter Jael as well as Clay on the piano. They harmonize her vocals very well and Jennifer and Michael both have an outstanding voice when performing their solos.

Plus, you will be pleasantly surprised at the comedic actions of Jennifer. I’m not going to give anything away, but it is a comedy routine that you will not want to miss and it’s just perfect for the setting of the Southern Gospel show.

Be sure to put this on your list of Sunday afternoon enjoyment shows to see great family entertainment

5/3/2024 – Jim Kast – 

Take a musical, spiritual journey with Frosts. Southern gospel music straight from your favorite hymnal. Michael Jason Frost, Jen Frost, and their daughter Jael the stars of the show give you a testimony of praise. Sit back and listen to Michaels original music, that will have you leaving much happier than when you arrived.

Jay Osmond Live

6/1/024 – Jim Kast –

Wonderful show listening to Jay share all his memories of his life as one of the Osmond Brothers. Their careers and achievements as Jay performs all the hits. Great band backing Jay up on stage with the Jaybirds singing group. You don’t have to be a fan of Osmond’s to take in this show but I’m betting you are an Osmond fan when you leave.

Cirque - Electric Dreams

6/26/2024 – Rich Turcott – 

This is the most unique new show in Branson this year.  Cirque combines the singing and dancing of the main cast.  The specialty acts are verly unique.  There are Trampoline, Hula Hoops and even a bow and arrow show from highabove the stage on a banner with the shot actually made form the women’s feet.  Definitely a cutting edge show.
