Spend a fall evening at The American
Mountain Theater in Elkins
ELKINS, W.Va. — Night comes
early during the fall foliage season, but that doesn’t mean the show has to
end. After a day of traveling around the state viewing West
Virginia’s autumn show of colors, plan to spend the evening in Elkins, W.Va.,
where you can take in another colorful show at the American Mountain Theater
(AMT).
On July 27, 2007, AMT opened
for business in its new 525-seat state-of-the-art music theater in the historic
Railyard in Elkins, W.Va., thereby becoming the state’s first
and only “Branson Style” family music, comedy and variety show. A cast of 11
seasoned entertainers will treat you to country, gospel, bluegrass and
patriotic music as well as light-hearted comedic impersonations of popular
entertainers, including Frank Sinatra, the Beatles, Roy Orbison, the Rolling
Stones, Aretha Franklin, the Beach Boys, Tina Turner, the Bee Gees and Michael
Jackson. Dance numbers are also included in the show, along with clean family
comedy which will leave you feeling fine and totally entertained. All together,
the performers bring audiences the freshest sound in the mountains.
“When producing a show, I try to
showcase every cast member in his or her best light by selecting the very best
material possible for each entertainer to perform,” says American Mountain
Theater owner Kenny Sexton. “By doing this, I try very hard not have any
‘filler material,’ but instead all ‘A’ productions. I also make
every
attempt to take the audience on an emotional ride that includes several
‘goose-bump’ moments throughout the show.”
With the American Mountain Theater’s location in
the historic Elkins Railyard, they are now part of a brand new motorcoach and
vacation destination. In addition to its 7:30
p.m. live, two-hour flagship evening show, AMT also offers a
completely different one-hour day show by appointment for motorcoach groups.
The Historic Railyard is also home to the Durbin and Greenbrier Valley Scenic
Railroad and a new Holiday Inn Express motel.
“The fantastic entertainment provided at the
American Mountain Theater and other nearby attractions makes it ‘the Hottest
Show Ticket Between New York and Nashville!’”
says Sexton.
