Return visits
His attempts to stage a Broadway-spectacle
musical for Silver
Dollar City paid big dividends for Brad Schroeder, the Branson, Missouri, park's
director of entertainment and events. For the Glory, a U.S. Civil War-era
production Schroeder wrote and staged in the tradition of Les Miserables
(THE LOOP, September
7, 2001) proved so popular during its eight-week run last autumn that
the show is being revived for this year. Opening April 12 For the Glory
will occupy the park's Opera House Theater through October 26, when it will
give way to Christmas in the Ozarks during the Silver Dollar City's Christmas
festival. Many of Glory's cast members are returning, too.
