Moon River Christmas Show Review by Kiara Hart

If you and your family are planning a trip to Branson, Missouri this holiday season, definitely plan on purchasing tickets to the Moon River Christmas Show at the iconic Andy Williams Moon River Theatre.  Featuring the incomparable Rick Thomas, magician and MC extraordinaire, an eclectic cast of talented musicians, singers, and dancers, a breath-taking set, dazzling costumes and much, much more, this Christmas Show is at the top of the list with something for everyone!

A delightful variety show, featuring Hollywood Walk of Fame Stars, The Lettermen, and the award-winning pop music group from the 60's The Cowsills, along with the stunning vocals of Nadia Cole, interwoven with illusions by the world-reknown Rick Thomas, this show is....well...magical. 

Seeing the show for the first time personally, I noticed that the performances kept me on the edge of my seat.  It had me anticipating what was next to come.  It never grew dull or boring and this seemed to be the case for the wide variety of ages all around me as well.  One of the most interesting and most enjoyable Christmas shows in Branson this year!

Not only will you witness exciting performaces from singers and dancers, you'll also enjoy the wonderful magic by Rick Thomas, presented in a new manner.  This is what makes the show truly unique.  When one thinks of a Christmas Show, an illusionist isn't necessarily the first act to come to mind.  Yet it works!  It adds an extra layer to the already magical essence of Christmas and this show nails it!

Spectacular singing, impressive magic, humor, show-stopping choreography, with exquisite sets, costumes, and song selections make for memorable family fun. The Christmas spirit is brought to life on stage at the beautiful Andy Williams Moon River Theatre in Branson, Misosuri through Dec. 10, 2022.
