Glen Campbell and Andy Williams

Legendary crooner Andy Williams will share the stage at his Moon River Theatre this Fall with The Osmond Brothers.

As he has for the past three years, Andy will feature Glen Campbell as his special guest on all afternoon matinee and evening performances. In addition, The Osmond Brothers will offer a 9:30 a.m. performance each morning, except Sunday, from Sept. 5-Oct. 25. These are the same dates for the Williams/Campbell shows. Later in the year, as is traditional, the Andy Williams Christmas Show will be presented at the theater and The Osmonds will also offer a special holiday presentation, Nov. 1 through Dec. 10.

"This will mark the first time in almost 30 years that I have had the pleasure of hanging out with the guys for an extended period of time," Williams said. "Because of the nature of Branson's audience, we felt that a morning show would be the perfect outlet for people who come into town for just one night. This way, they can catch an evening show, stay over and see The Osmonds in the morning, and still be back on the road heading home by midday."

The friendship between Williams and Campbell dates to the sixties, when both were introduced to the American public through their musical variety shows. "The Andy Williams Show" debuted on NBC in 1963 and "The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour" on CBS in 1968. When the two perform together this Fall, Glen will open the show with such classic hits as "Wichita Lineman", "Gentle On My Mind", and "Rhinestone Cowboy", peppering the performance with his dry, self-deprecating banter. Williams will then transport visitors back to an era of romantic ballads with such legendary tunes as "Days of Wine and Roses", "The Theme From Love Story", and of course, "Moon River". The finale will feature the two musical icons joining together to perform a series of memorable duets.

The Osmond Brothers have created a niche all their own in the field of entertainment. Their remarkable success with Pop, Rock-n-Roll, Country and Gospel music has enabled them to touch audiences both young and old, and every age in between. Mastering this variety of musical genres is the contributing factor that has seen the Osmonds' tremendous success in television, recording and concert performances. Sold-out engagements from Vegas to the U.K. have been synonymous with the name "Osmond" since their early years in the entertainment business.
