    1. The Shepherd of the Hills Outdoor Drama

      The Holiday season brings to mind the importance of preserving history and time-honored family traditions. No one understands that more than the Shepherd of the Hills. Here, in our 59th season, we are proud to bring you our new production A Shepherd’s Christmas Carol. We invite you to enjoy a full course turkey dinner with pumpkin dessert while we present our version of a true Christmas classic starring your favorite characters from the story The Shepherd of the Hills. Our tale catches up with Ollie Stewart several years after losing his sweetheart Sammy Lane to his childhood friend and rival Young Matt Matthews. Join us as Mandy Ford, Uncle Ike, and the rest of the neighborhood attempt to include Ollie in their Christmas festivities. Laugh along they try to remind an incorrigible Ollie Stewart of the magic of Christmas and the true meaning of friendship. Plenty of family friendly fun awaits you in an event that is sure to be on everyone’s Christmas list for years to come.

    Overall, it was a great experience. I would definitely do it again and bring the children and grandchildren. Fun Times .

    Visiting solo I still had a lovely time. The food was great overall I must see an experience. It was full of laughter. The show gave the full meaning of our Christmas is really about JesusChrist our Lord I absolutely loved it.

    A Christmas Carol

    The show was a little short but the actors were terrific! The food was good, the wait staff were very efficient and pleasant.

    Family entertainment in Branos

    Good, wholesome entertainment for the whole family (as long as children are old enough to not be disruptive like 2 of 3 children of a couple on the front row were during the show we saw. The staff were forced to ask them to leave as they were interfering with the show/actors...). The staff & servers were excellent!

    Good, but misssing the true meaning of Cjhroistmas

    Was disappointed that was not longer, did not include the truth of Jesus Christ making the difference in his attitude change. The true message of Christmas was missing.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for the wonderful review. I am a little confused when you said it lacks the true meaning of Christmas because, I think we accomplished that very well. Ollie Stewart is our version of Ebeneezer Scrooge and we have him find his faith on Christmas Eve. That’s something that never happened in the other Christmas Carol that everyone knows. We added that in because we felt that makes it more impactful than a typical Christmas Carol play. Again, thank you for the wonderful review. Maybe we need to make it a more pronounced revelation for him.

    Shepherd of the Hills is a Gem for Family Entertainment

    This was our second trip to a Sheherd of the Hills performance. We saw a Shepherd Christmas Carol. It was a great twist of A Christmas Carol, and definitely funnier. The dinner was very good and the performance was great. This is truly a great place for clean humor and for family fun. We will be back.

    A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Branson.

    How much does A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson cost?

    +

    Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Branson usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Branson is not rushed.

    Is A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 39 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.6/5 across 70 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Branson, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson?

    +

    Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Branson can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Branson and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does A Shepherd's Christmas Carol Dinner Show in Branson start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Branson within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Branson?

    +

    Branson is show country: theatre productions, dinner cruises on Table Rock Lake, Silver Dollar City, Ozark cave tours and duck boat alternatives on the water. Show tickets vary in seating tier, so we weight listings that spell it out. On Outty we rank every Branson experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Haygoods: Branson's Most Popular Show, The Petersens at The Little Opry Theatre in Branson, Branson Murder Mystery- Branson's Original #1 Murder Mystery. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Branson?

    +

    April to June and September to December for the Christmas season. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Branson?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
