Imagine witnessing the most beloved stories of the Bible come to life on one of the largest stages in the country. Sight & Sound Theatres(R), described by some as “the Christian
\nBroadway,” will premiere the epic Bible story of Noah on May 24, 2008, at its new theatre in Branson, Mo., a month ahead of the originally scheduled
\nopening.<\/p>\n
The new Branson theatre, located at 1001 Shepherd of the Hills Expressway, is 339,000 square feet with a stage area of 26,550 square feet
\nand seating for 2,085 patrons.<\/p>\n
The production’s 300-foot stage that wraps around three sides of the audience, 40-foot high sets, cast of 45 actors, elaborate costumes,
\nbreathtaking special effects, and hundreds of live and animatronic animals captivate and transport audience members as they experience Noah and his
\nfamily’s journey of persecution, faithfulness, hope and redemption.<\/p>\n

\nCoast. Founded in 1976 by Glenn and Shirley Eshelman, Sight & Sound Theatres has produced spectacular, epic stories of the Bible at its
\noriginal location in Lancaster County, Pa., where more than 800,000 theatergoers from across the country and around the world attend shows

\nfaith of our guests,” said Eshelman.<\/p>\n
About Sight & Sound Theatres:<\/p>\n
