I don't think the review by BranFan is correct. He didn't see the same show we saw. His remarks are totally incorrect.
#1 Hits of the 60's is a fabulous show. Not only did my husband & I enjoy it but my son was totally captivated. The music was all from the best of the 1960's music. It was very fast paced, not a dull moment. The band was one of the best we've seen in Branson.
The costumes were bright and very much the 1960's look. The music was right on the mark for the 1960's. We were glad to see a show that actually played the music they said they were playing. We have seen several shows in Branson, decade shows that play the 60's music but are for a different decade, ie. 50's/70's.
Everyone sitting around us was having a great time, old and young. #1 Hits of the 60's is a show you don't want to miss. One couple we talked to said they were seeing the show for the 3rd time, they just loved it. We will see it again on our next trip to Branson.
Hey 60's keep groovin.

If you believe some of the reviews for this show, you will think that #1 Hits of the 60s is the best thing in Branson. My 60’s childhood and these reviews, coaxed me in the door. Unfortunately, all opinions are relative to whatever one is comparing something to. When compared to some other shows in Branson, this one comes off like a high school musical. While the show has a cute nostalgic format, the lack of production quality sticks out like a sore thumb. The singers are mediocre. The choreography is stilted and the character interplay lacks any chemistry at all. From the ticket booth to the grand finally the operation lacks professionalism.

I had reserved front row seats for the show. When I picked up our tickets at the booth I noted that they were several rows back. When I told the ticket agent that the seating was wrong on my tickets, she said, “Yes, I know, I was having trouble with my computer so I changed your seats.” After a few moments in Duhhhhhh land, I made her change them back to the seats that I had reserved. When the usher seated us in the theater, he didn’t have a clue either. We had to find our correct seats on our own.

The show badly needs a warm-up act or comedian to get the audience going. It opens to a dark stage and takes 15 minutes to draw in the audience. One compliment I have for them is something that every show in Branson could take a lesson from. They were the only show I booked this year that had a seating chart for their theater on their web site. Another novelty of the show is that it is probably the only place in Branson where you can see four, really, really, white kids, in shiny gold suits, trying to imitate some famous black mo-town groups.

If you are a die-hard child of the 60’s, hungry for a dose of your past, you will probably enjoy this light romp down memory lane. If you are a connoisseur of good productions then pass this one by and go see lost in the 50s instead.
