Pigeon Forge, Tenn. – While in town recently Louise Mandrell witnessed “The Miracle” Show at The Miracle Theater that was formerly the Louise Mandrell theater. The Miracle is a passionate musical production depicting the entire life of Jesus Christ.

Mandrell said, “I am really proud of what is here. It is bigger than what I was expecting. It is a musical and it is truly magnificent. It is awesome.”

She went backstage at intermission and greeted all of the cast and crew members, many of whom were her former employees. Mandrell said to the cast, “How magnificent! I am really proud. It is way beyond what I had expected. I worked hard at this theater for eight years and wanted to see this theater do great things. Thank you for being so great. Your families have to be ecstatic when they come.”

2005 was Mandrell’s last season in Pigeon Forge, with New Year’s Eve as her final performance. Mandrell made this decision due to her desire to spend more time with her husband, who has been ill for quite some time.

Mandrell said, “Many of you know that my husband, John’s health has not been good for over four years. He has a very rare disease called RSD. Many of you know that we were blessed with a miracle when I took him to Germany for treatment. He came home pain free, hopefully for the rest of his life.” Louise said she has been blessed watching many miracles in “The Miracle” show in her former theater and her former employees continue to witness many miracles a day at The Miracle Theater, one of the largest faith-based venues in the United States.
