![]() If you want a cool evening with some good bbq, you have to come check out this venue. ![]() The family plays a variety of instruments and Mama plays the bass. Tess is amazing on the violin, and Skyler Yodels like she was born doing it. Grayden comes down into the audience when they are performing and makes the show interactive with some comedy while playing his music. I can’t say enough how much fun this place is. Right now Mama’s Wranglers are doing a themed show called the Great Train Robbery so you better be prepared to get caught up in the robbery. This last visit I finally had the opportunity to see Mama’s Wranglers perform and their performance still warms my heart. The first few times I was there I saw tribute bands playing music from the 50s on up which I can’t say enough about. They also have a variety of tribute musicians that come in as you can see in the picture. Dinner is served at 6pm and the show starts at 7pm. Everyone else will bring your food choice to the table. They do have a small cash bar with beer and wine if that’s your pleasure which you go get or a variety of non alcoholic beverages Skyler will bring to your table. Normally Skyler will come around and great you when you first sit down and will take your drink order. It’s comfortable and you are not a guest, when you walk in the door you’re considered family. The venue is small and quaint fixed up like an old western town. And not to boot, they feed you a Chuck wagon dinner of either pulled pork, chicken or vegetarian if you need with sides. When Mama’s Wranglers are performing, it’s Mama with 3 of her kids who play multiple instruments, yodel and do some clog dancing. ![]() Picture yourself sitting around a campfire up in the mountains listening to some folks singing songs from the old Chuck wagon days, you need to come see Mama’s Wranglers. It’s family owned and operated and they are amazing. Were I not from another part of the US, I would definitely return to this dinner theater to enjoy their other routines.Ī friend of mine introduced me to this hidden gem that’s been around for some time. It’s a great way to spend an evening of family entertainment. OVERALL SUMMARY: This dinner theater is well worth the price. None of the other businesses in the strip center is open during evening concerts so there is plenty for a full house attendance. PARKING: Surface parking is available using the strip center spaces. This close proximity adds to the group/audience connection, allows the audience to really appreciate just how talented group members are on their instruments, and provides opportunity for some post-concert personal conversations with the performers. But I found the somewhat small space to be a huge plus to the overall experience because of how close the group and audience are to each other. My first impression was that this was a pretty cozy venue. The meal is $12.00 which is a bargain for the quality of meal provided.įACILITIES: Upon arrival, I was surprised that the dinner theater is not housed in an actual barn, rather it is in a strip-center shop space on the south side of East Basic Drive a little east of South Water Street and the Henderson Municipal Court. Tickets can be reserved online or by phone via their web site.ĭINNER: The dinner theater begins with a tasty dinner (catered) consisting of sliced beef brisket, cowboy baked beans, Caesar salad and dinner roll which is served by group members. Tickets are reasonably priced at $12.95 adult, $10.95 senior, $8.95 child age 11 and under. The group currently rotates four different routines. There’s a whole lot of toe-tapping going on throughout the concert. Impressive! All group members exude talent and charm, readily connecting with the audience. I was amazed at one number that concluded with the four Jackson youth playing four fiddles, each using a bow on a fiddle held by another group member. All the performers are top-notch musicians and singers with plenty of humor thrown in their routine. Their one-hour routine included several numbers with clog dancing and also yodeling by the youngest female family member. The group consists of the Toni Jackson family singers led by Toni ("Mama") and four of her teenage and early-20s children.ĮNTERTAINMENT CONTENT: The group performs a variety of popular country and pop songs with a country-western flavor accompanied by acoustic guitar, banjo, mandolin, fiddle, keyboard and electric base. The group tours all over the US, but has recently begun a dinner theater in Henderson, NV. This venue features a concert group known as Mama's Wranglers. VENUE: I had a great experience attending a start-up western-family-entertainment dinner theater called the Firelight Barn Dinner Theater on a Saturday evening.
