MONROE - On Valentine's Day, Saturday, Feb. 14 at 7:30 p.m., the Monroe Arts Center will present one of the most brilliant shows ever to come out of Branson, "the live music show capital of the world." Direct from the Hughes American Family Theatre in Branson, Mo., the five wildly-talented Hughes Brothers will take the stage at the Monroe High School Performing Arts Center to present an evening packed full of remarkable entertainment. Sidesplitting humor, lively choreography, dynamic vocals, and an array of great songs from country to Broadway, are all part of a Hughes Brothers show.
When the entire Hughes family packed up and moved to Branson from their home of 27 years in Taylorsville, Utah, they had no idea of the adventure in store for them. Though brothers Marty, Jason, Adam, Ryan, and Andy have been performing together for 28 years, 13 of which have been in Branson, they are still young, ranging in age from 30 to 40. Their musical training took place naturally as they were growing up. Raised with musical parents, who were always being asked to perform for various events, the brothers' talents simply seemed to fall into place. They've been harmonizing and performing as a group since the youngest brother, Andy, was only two years old. This undoubtedly accounts for their amazing polish and musical flexibility.
But their incredible vocal sound is just one facet of their talent. They knock your socks off with their high-energy movement and dance. They are also proficient and versatile instrumentalists. They have a rare ability to make you laugh one minute and tear up the next. Their strong presence, sincere charm, love of fun and seemingly endless talent are just a few of the reasons they are well loved in Branson and were recently voted "Best Vocal Group" at the Branson Entertainment Awards Gala. Marty Hughes summed it up best. "There is nothing better than being able to do the thing you love, and having your audiences love the thing you do," he said.
In January of 2000 the Hughes Brothers took over the former Roy Clark Celebrity Theatre, Branson's landmark theater in the heart of town, and renamed it the Hughes American Family Theatre. For most of the year the entire Hughes family consisting of five brothers, five wives, and 24 children, perform there six days a week.
Reserved seat tickets for The Hughes Brothers show are $35, $25, $20, and $15, and may be purchased by calling the Monroe Arts Center box office at (608) 325-5700. Additional information regarding this performance and other Monroe Arts Center events can be found online at www.monroeartscenter.com.
