The Toby Show returns to Branson! This beloved timeless story of good versus evil was around for generations as a travelling vaudeville-style tent show visiting small towns around the country; it became a Branson fixture in the early 1960s when the original shepherd, Shad Heller, helped put together a Toby Show here. With Heller's role in the legendary show, it's only fitting that this revived production be hosted at the Shepherd of the Hills Homestead.
The Toby Show returns to Branson! This beloved timeless story of good versus evil was around for generations as a travelling vaudeville-style tent show visiting small towns around the country; it became a Branson fixture in the early 1960s when the original shepherd and co-writer of the Shepherd of the Hills novel, Shad Heller, along with inspiration from Irene Ryan, who played “Granny” in the Beverly Hillbillies TV show, and with help from his wife, Mollie, developed a Toby Show for Branson. The show lived at the Wilderness Settlement on Branson’s famous strip, playing in a venue that was actually called the “Corn Crib Theater.” With Heller’s role in first establishing a Toby Show in Branson, it’s only fitting that this revived production be hosted at the Shepherd of the Hills Homestead. Not only will you get a fun, family-friendly, and laugh-yourself-silly show, you’ll be served a belly-bustin’ delicious dinner!
