We went to Stuck on the 70's this year because we had gone twice last year and thought it was the best "new" show going. We enjoyed it so much last year. I must say I was disappointed this year. They had taken several of the cast members off the show...they were so vital to the show. The married couple was so great and the little dark headed girl and the blond who played the dork in the Showboat skit were so wonderful. We really missed them all. (I'm sorry I didn't remember their names.)

We were so happy that they had kept the young man that sings the Kermit song. He is so enjoyable! He sings great and does such a wonderful job in the Loveboat skit. He kept us entertained. I hope you keep this talented performer around.

The parking was good and we certainly enjoy the coffee shop you have at the theater. Our daughters loved having the different concoctions they make. Great popcorn also!

The musicians were so good. We really enjoyed it when they came down to the front and had a jam session. What fun! The man that leads the band does a wonderful job and we thought he done a great impersonation of Elton John!

The show was still good, but not as good as it was last year. They really need that 4th couple. The cast still does their best and that’s what counts.

Knowing what good productions the Starlite Entertainment group puts together prompted us to see "Stuck on the 70's." We were not disappointed. The best place to see this show is front row, center. The show never drags or lacks energy. There is a lot of audience participation and the talent is amazing. You find yourself singing along despite yourself as the old favorites of the 70's are brought back to life. The band was awesome. The sound was awesome. And we had a great night.

The show is exciting the songs just keep coming. The show is not slow and dragging; keeps your feet jumping all the time. The love boat scene is very different the couples are most entertaining and the nerd couple is very funny (my leg would shake too, if a girl hugged my neck like that) the Y.M.C.A. song gets everyone going; even Kermit the frog is a sight to see. This show has some of the best songs made in the 70's. The seating is comfortable; it is easy to see the stage and the cast of people are very friendly. I highly recommend the show.

My husband and I went to this show last Friday, June 11th, and thought it was amazing! It is about time that Branson puts some shows out there that appeal to a different type of customer. We come to Branson at least 3 times every year, and this is one of the most refreshing things I have seen there in quite some time!

I had asked the Box Office attendants who the owner was and was informed that it was a company named Starlite Entertainment. Apparently this company has quite a few quality shows there in Branson. I say quality, because as it turns out we have seen all of their shows at one time or another, and we love them.

All I have to say to Starlite Entertainment is: THANK YOU for thinking about the rest of us. This show is awesome; it really took me back.

I have seen the show last year and then this year it is not as good. They have cut some of the cast members and some of the ones that they kept, look nice but don’t have the best singing voices. Also, they had a married couple on there last year that both had dynamic voices, especially the man, but I don't know their names. The show is still pretty good, but it used to be great. My church went as a group last year, but since I saw it this year, we won’t be going back to see it again. We prefer Lost in the 50's. No one cared for the Elvis impersonator though on either show (he is the same for both shows) I think it was because we had already seen Tony Roi as Elvis and he was so good, that it ruins it for the other impersonator.
They have adequate seating and the songs were done very well. The best part of the show is the Love Boat scene. The girl and guy that play dorks are incredibly funny. I think it would hold a child’s interest, but maybe not for the whole show.

The theatre was small but cozy. We were very impressed by the band. We weren't expecting live horn players. The band filled out the stage nicely and was comprised of all excellent players, and singers too (the production utilizes the band very well throughout the show).

The cast was very good, though from the brochure we were expecting more to be on stage.

The first half had a VERY good Elvis Impersonator who was extremely entertaining.

The second half had an African-American girl who was a most impressive vocalist.

The overall show was very well put together and well worth our money.

Highly recommend.
