As Branson’s 2010 season draws near, constant reports of new acts are beginning to be announced. The latest news out of Branson indicates that funnymen Ray Stevens and Paul Harris will be returning after brief departures, offering Ozarks visitors a variety of quality, laugh-out-loud entertainment options!

Paul Harris, noted for his seamless combination of down-home humor and earnest musical talent, will be filling seats at Music City Centre, though exact show dates have yet to be announced. Those that have seen Paul’s past performances at the Clay Cooper Theater and Yakov’s Theatre can expect the same brand of honest comedy and equally impressive musical numbers while first-time visitors will quickly learn why Paul is considered one of the top comedians to ever grace a Branson stage.

Having laid the foundation for many comedian-songwriters such as Paul, the legendary Ray Stevenswill also be returning to Branson with his iconic sense of humor still very much intact. Ray will call the Welk Resort Theater home from September 15 through October 23, presenting guests with classics such as “The Streak,” as well as new material that includes “We the People.”

Along with the addition of Paul Harris and Ray Stevens, Branson’s comedy scene will be rounded out by Jim Stafford, Yakov Smirnoff, Red Skelton, Bob Nelson, Keith “Red” Allen, and the Comedy Jamboree for a variety of light-hearted entertainment and laughs.
