*Disclosure: Sight and Sound Theaters provided our family with free tickets to see the show through Explore Branson. All text and opinions are my own.
On day five of our Branson vacation after we did the Ride the Ducks tour and had lunch at Mel’s Hard Luck Diner, we headed over to Sight and Sound Theater.
The theater is gorgeous! We arrived early and enjoyed just looking around for a bit. And having time to decide exactly which snacks we wanted for during the show of course! 🙂
Photos are not allowed in the theater, but I did get special permission to get a shot of the kids in their seats. Okay, I’ll be honest with you. Every single person that I had talked to who had been to see Joseph at Sight & Sound Theaters raved, just raved. I was excited to see it myself, but I kind of had this…”It can’t possibly be THAT good feeling,” as the show started.

I can’t even begin to tell you how well done the production was. Joseph was spectacular! The lights, set, music, acting, animals, costumes…everything was perfect. We thought the production to be a very God honoring portrayal of the story of Joseph in the Bible. I agree with everything everyone told me! I was wowed from the very beginning by the way Joseph’s dreams were dramatized.

Off and on throughout the show I would look around at my children. With the exception of my one year old who was in very much need of a nap, my kids were mesmerized the entire show. The younger ones sat on their knees and leaned forward. The older ones were on the edge of their seats. And I couldn’t even get my usually very helpful husband to help me with the baby–he wanted to watch the show! Ha ha!
My favorite actor was the jailor. As you might imagine he was the comic relief in the show. I’m partial to laughter as you know! But he was just dead on. His acting, lines, expression, and timing were perfect. You know, sometimes the comic relief though humorous, if not perfectly timed, can come across more on the corny side. He was completely believable and had us rolling with laughter.
The show has it all. It is funny, heartwarming, and inspiring. The girls and I all had tears in our eyes when it was over. My husband looked over at me and said, “That was amazing!”
We want to go back and see the other shows at Sight & Sound Theaters! This was one of our favorite attractions in Branson. Follow Sight & Sound Theaters on Facebook to keep informed about the latest happenings!
Love, love, love Joseph! It’s our favorite Sight and Sound so far!! I am still hoping they will bring Ruth back sometime. We have the DVD and it is amazing!
We LOVE seeing Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat!! Our daughter performed in her high school’s production, and we’ve attended other productions in many of our local theaters. It’s one of our favorite musicals = )
It looks/sounds like this theater did a wonderful job with their production as well. So glad you all enjoyed it : D
Your blog posts have been a huge help while planning our Branson vacation. Thank you so much!
I am so happy to hear this! Have a wonderful trip. We would love to go back.
Wow! There is so much to see in Branson, it is so hard to choose. Did you buy your tickets after you got there, or did you buy any online ahead of time? I’m trying to find the best deals online.
I had almost everything planned ahead of time. I think we purchased one show after we got there.
