Loved the Christmas show. The "segments" were cute and kitcshy and family friendly. I enjoyed mysef thouroughly. It had a bit of the Christmas magic I believed in as a kid. I laugh as I read other reviews about the bathrooms. They are gorgeous and quite frankly a lot better than any of the bathrooms in Branson. Shoji is a great fiddler and we were able to see Christina when we visited. She's a great performer, every bit as good as any of the young gals in country music today. Ticket price is a bit high but I think worth it.

This show was just average. It was a Japanese violionist who is wonderful at what he does and maybe great for the older crowd, but not for me. I felt like it was a tortous event. It could not end soon enough.
It may just be a generational thing because my grandparents loved it, but to me it wasn't worth the ticket price. I would have gone with a better show.
Although, I have heard at Christmas time they do better performances. One key thing that I loved though was the bathrooms...that is right, bathrooms. They are fancy as all get out!
In my opinion not a must see, but others loved it. -

Uggg.
Over the top, even for me.
It is entertaining to go to the bathrooms at this theatre. The gals bathroom is as if Laura Ashley puked all over the place, and the overwheleming purfumey stuff is crazy.
Gals, do whtever you can to check out the fellas bathroom.
No bad seats, great visibility.
The show, I could live without, but it is entertaining in a car-wreck sort of way. Saw the show 3 times while I was in Branson.
The dancers are good.Listed in: Branson, MO, Entertain ME!!!

So you were looking for something to do on a Saturday night?
How about going to a Theater?
How about a Country Western Star?
How about a Japanese musician?
How about a band with country to classical?
How about a family show?
How about Taiko Drums?
What if I told you we could do all that and roll it into one night? One theater? One star?
A JAPANESE COUNTRY WESTERN MUSICIAN WITH TAIKO DRUMS IN HIS OWN THEATER!
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!!!
Nope! Let's go!
It's SHOJI TABUCHI! He has his own theater! He plays the fiddle. Foot stomping! Country Western footstomping! With Japanese Taiko drums! No, you are not dreaming! No, it is not a nightmare!
THIS IS AN EXTRAORDINARY SHOW!
And a theater that you don't want to miss. A theater that you absolutely must see . . . even the restrooms are a showcase in themselves.
LADIES: Live orchids at every onyx and granite sink. Chandeliers!
and
GENTLEMEN: Red & black. Leather chairs. Hand carved mahogany billiard table. Marble fireplace.
This is what I call decadent fun! You won't believe it! Not in a million years. You must see for yourself! I did, I had tickets with several friends. We sat on the front row of the very large theater with our mouths hanging open, our feet stomping and our hearts racing. WHAT A SHOW!

What a disappointment. This was the first show I selected based on recommendations from friends. I was in Branson the first week in Dec./2008 and was looking forward to a new experience - country music. The Shoji show was starting their Christmas program. When the lights were dimmed, adult sized elves started prancing around the theatre - this went on for 5-8 minutes. Finally, the curtains came up and Shoji made his entrance. The elves were pretty hokey. Turned out the whole show had a lot of 'fillers'/extras. I'd venture to say that Shoji plays about 60percent of the time.
Shoji is a gifted fiddler. But I didn't understand all the billboards around town showing him and his blonde wife - as though she was part of the show. We kept on waiting for her appearance, and he mentioned her name several times but nothing else. What kind of shtick is that? He might as well put a picture of his pets on the billboard too.
After seeing a few other performances in town, and hearing announcers say that 'so and so' in their theater won the best fiddler of the year award, you start to wonder who's giving these awards out.
I guess there's some hype to the bathrooms as well. I didn't pay to go see a toilet. I don't get it. -

A classical trained violinist who can play anything and make it entertaining. If you don't like this nothing will entertain you.
