Branson’s Shepherd of the Hills show closes

Friday, 09 Oct, 2013 0

Branson’s Shepherd of the Hills show closed last week, citing rising insurance and production costs, declining crowds, and costs associated with the new federal health care law.

At its peak during the 1970s and 1980s, the Shepherd of the Hills play drew more than 2,000 guests each night.

The Shepherd of the Hills Homestead will be maintained as a historical landmark, and tours of Old Matt’s Cabin, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, will continue to run during the summer months.

Inspiration Tower and the Vigilante Extreme ZipRider will be open year-round; the Trail of Lights Drive-Thru and the Christmas on the Trail Chuckwagon Dinner Show will operate in November and December.
