A dozen Burning Hills Singer perform country songs at the outdoor Burning Hills Amphitheatre, that seats over 2,800. The facility is stunning, requiring a long drive uphill and an escalator down the side of a hill to the seating area.<\/p>\n
The Old West facade and live country band are the backdrop for the 90 minute performance. The singers are led by vocalist and MC, Emily Walter. The cast made several costume changes and, at one point, came out in tap shoe cowboy boots and western fringe that glowed in the dark!<\/p>\n
Also included in the evening’s performance was a tribute to Teddy Roosevelt and, at one point, a re-enactment of the charge up San Juan Hill in Cuba, which seemed out of place.<\/p>\n
The guest performers for the evening were an acrobatic trio, performing on a trapeze and rope, along with a bit of juggling. At least five live horses were also used throughout the performance, pulling in a stage coach to drop off performers or ride through “town” kicking up dust. At one point the performers rode in on an old pick up truck for the tribute to the working man, a medley of songs about hard working men including farmers.<\/p>\n
The evening’s performance ended with a fanfare of streamers and a burst of fireworks that lit up the big night sky. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
