The show

Clay Cooper's Country Express

A variety show for all ages, with as much comedy as music.

A family on stage

Clay Cooper headlines with his wife and two sons, plus a cast of singers, dancers and musicians.

Every style

Country, rock 'n' roll, pop, gospel and patriotic music, with comedy bits that pull in the audience.

Just A Swingin'

Clay serenades a special guest from the audience on the porch swing, one of the numbers regulars wait for.

Ozark Mountain Christmas

From November 1 through December the show turns into an Ozark Mountain Christmas Celebration.

Since he was 16

Clay came to Branson as a teen with a kids' band, The Texas Goldminors, played in several shows and now owns the theater.

After the show

Clay stays after every show to meet the audience; many of the cast sign autographs and take photos in the lobby.
