Thanksgiving Day – November 27, 2008
Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you and your family are having a wonderful Holiday season and wish you the best throughout the year.
The final two weeks of performances for the year are upon us, and we are already working on our 2009 activities.
We are thankful and appreciative to all our employee staff, entertainers, theater patrons, ticket sellers and marketing partners for all you’ve done to make this year a success. Despite the National economic downturn, flooding in the Midwest, hurricanes in the South and an overall slump in tourism across the country… things are picking up in Branson and we are optimistic that next year will bring an improvement for our entire Nation. Wings of Christmas
Final Two Weeks of Production for 2008
The Holiday season is flying by, and on December 13th, the Hamner Barber Variety Show performs it’s final showing for the year of our musical presentation "The Wings of Christmas." Magical toys that come to life, animated memories of Christmas cartoons and singing Santas are only part of the fun. The finale includes a beautiful, original song "The Wings of Christmas," written especially for this production by Glen Campbell’s musical conductor T.J. Kuenster. The Wings of Christmas is a great holiday tradition for the entire family.
