Broadway's long running comedy-thriller by Ira Levin (Rosemary's Baby), directed by Joe Bowman. Sidney, an older, washed-up playwright, arranges to meet with younger writer Clifford at Sidney's rustic Connecticut home to discuss Clifford's first attempt at authoring a play.

Location: The Mansion Theatre, 464 Hwy 248, Branson
Admission: $25 adult; $11 children 4-12

Tom Mullica's one-man tribute show is a living, breathing, giggling, reification of Red Skelton. Tom has eerily and happily integrated Skelton's persona with his own. He faithfully captures the gentleness, sweetness, and improvisational aspects of Red Skelton, effortlessly becoming the Red-That-Was while simultaneously inventing a Red-That-Would-Have-Been. He riffs. He touches hearts. -
