"He is absolutely fantastic"
Just got back from branson and saw shoji's show for the third time. It is always wonderful. He is absolutely fantastic. Christina was there and she is truly a super singer and dancer. This show is always in great taste, wonderful talent, and beautifully done. The other performers are also sensational - learning to play the japanese drums and doing the drum line of a marching band. Shoji's life story is one of determination and success. This is absolutely the greatest. In fact, i can't wait to see it again.

"There is such a variety that everyone should find something to love about it. "
This was our 2nd time to see this show, and we loved it even more than the first time. There is such a variety that everyone should find something to love about it. I loved seeing christina so involved in the show, and her singing was very good. She was about 9 or 10 when we were here last. She sure grew up to be a very lovely young woman. The extras in the show are great and trained very well. So much goes into the production of every segment of the show, and i can't wait to see the christmas production. Loved the bathrooms. They are something to see. Thanks to all involved in helping the ladies out with so much space. Loved everything about the show--even shoji's humor.

"We really enjoyed the show and the theater."
We really enjoyed the show and the theater. Mr. Tabuchi has such a pleasant way about him, very charming. We didn't get to turn in our comment card to them, but would appreciate you letting him know that christina's patsy klein song in the set that was called classic country was just terrific. He should have her do a whole set just of patsy's songs. The whole show was very entertaining and a good pace. Lots of things going on, but not overdone. Loved the ladie's room!

"Totally loved the show."
Totally loved the show. We took a trip to south dakota and met other fans of this show. Everyone i have ever spoken to and mention shoji's name has always raved about how great an entertainer he is and what a wonderful show. I especially love that he has a live band. They add so much to the overall effect. So many people now only have canned music. I was so blessed with the entire program. I like that he involves the audience and band members in his routine on stage. What an entertainer. I'm planning to return again this christmas season.

"I am concerned that mr."
I am concerned that mr. Tabuchi is getting dementia/alzheimers. He repeated his story of getting to the usa but his musical talent is still strong and it was a joy to hear him play and sing.

Loved the show, but noticed how much of the time of the show was utilized by christina and the dancers/vocalist who sang with her. They were talented and i am sure that the plan is to shift the program toward a younger crowd, but i would have enjoyed even more of the violin music of her father. I love the theater! This is only my second visit, the first was when christina was only 5 or 6 years old. Guess i was lost in the past. I continue to be amazed at how wonderful that violin sounds!

We had seen shoji years ago and my mother was very determined to get back to see him again, which we did on this trip. He was fantastic and was well worth the price of the ticket. I was worried that since it was a morning show, that the show might be watered down some. Boy, was i wrong. He performed as if there was a full theater and it was awesome. I was also excited to get my picture taken with him at intermission. Thank you shoji!

A few years ago my father wanted to go down to branson to see some vilest

This classic branson show is one of the most popular in town and has been for 20 years. A japanese now american fiddler plays a little of everything including the required gospel and salute to the veterans. He's very talented and his show has great production value with his singers and dancers as well as his back up orchestra. Comfortable theater with no bad seats, bathrooms that have to be seen and plenty of parking.

Shoji was a joy, we all enjoyed his show and him personally- we also attended the tillis family reunion and would have to say that they were our favorite of all the performances we saw. We also enjoyed the landing shopping district and were blessed by the springfield symphony and andy williams and one of the tillis daughters.
