We believe this is going to be the best Opry season ever! If you are a fan of great music, get a season ticket...you won't be sorry. Tell your friends and family too. We've already sold over 100 season tickets.
In April 2001, the Royal Theater Artistic Committee added The Texasville Opry, a live classic and traditional Country and Western venue to the Archer City’s iconic theater schedule with a sold out crowd. In 2019, the Opry celebrates its 19th birthday as it opens for another great season with more expected sellouts.
Gary Beesinger, who serves as the show’s producer and emcee said he was skeptical in 2001 that the show would last. “I really thought it might last two or three years, but I had no idea we would make it to 15 years!” The 2019 season features five shows and “if folks keep coming, we’ll keep putting it up on the stage!” I know there are a lot of people in the area that love Classic Country and old time Rock and Roll, and I think they’d be blown away to discover that they can get this type of entertainment right here in the heart of Texoma. Many of our patrons say it’s the best live music show they’ve seen!
Returning for the season is the house band, “Texas Pride” featuring fiddle and steel guitar. “If a country show doesn’t have a fiddle and/or steel guitar, its not country! Sax and other horns are added for the rock and roll show. I try to model the show after what you might see with a cross of the Grand Old Opry in Nashville and the best of Branson,” said Beesinger. Throughout the season, the Opry combines classic and traditional Country with some occasional contemporary Country, rocking golden oldies rock and roll as well as a mix of both Southern and contemporary Gospel, Bluegrass, with some occasional Cowboy Campfire songs thrown in. In addition, the Opry will occasionally hold special shows.
