BEBOP ENTERTAINMENT Texas Garza called his granddad, the late Tom McRae, "Bebop", and you'll be hearing that name around Granbury Live frequently. Bebop Entertainment will be staging all future productions at Granbury Live. Sandi McRae and Sister McRae continue the legacy of Tom McRae, co-founder of Granbury Live, with the family friendly, professional, costumed, choreographed entertainment which began on the Granbury Live stage November 26th, 1999. With the help of an awesome staff, cast and crew, Granbury Live looks forward to the future with some of the original hearts and hands at the helm. SANDI McRAE: "We promise to always stand by our mission statement: Granbury Live showcases professional, family-friendly entertainment within the traditional guidelines of Christian values." "You can actually fall into the Fountain of Youth at Granbury Live. Somehow Granbury Live seems to lift every spirit and put a big smile on every face and heart, and it is such a privilege to be part of that magic. We take no credit, but give God the glory for this place, the talent He blesses us to share and the fans He brings to enjoy it.” |

FAN COMMENTS "We just got back from Branson, and there's nothing there better than this." Elmer Jesperan Los Angeles, CA "We've been coming here since Granbury Live first opened, and "The Beat Goes On" is the best show we've seen yet!" Iris Stewart Rockwall WOW, what a great show. My wife Carol and I are regulars at Granbury Live and have not missed but a couple since we moved here in 2001. Today's “and the beat goes on” .....is among the best I have ever been to. Sean Mitchell’s rendition of Pretty Woman was as good as it gets, probably better than Roy Orbison’s. Having been to Branson and seen Shoji. He is good, but if I had to rate them I would put Mike Echols #1 and Shoji #2. What a show Zac Wilson put on, awesome. Now from my wife, one last comment about Sean. When he sang Unchained Melody it put goose bumps all over. One more time, What a Show. Thank you Granbury Live. MSgt. USMC Retired Granbury THE CONCERT The 60's were an age of youth as 70 million post-war Baby Boomers became teenagers and young adults. Come to Granbury Live, be a teen again and enjoy the 60's from American Bandstand to Woodstock, From girl groups to The British Invasion And experience the main principles embraced by the 60's - HOPE! |
