Pigeon
Forge, TN – October 2018 / Newsmaker Alert / Ahoy mateys! The
“Pirates Revenge™ Dinner
and Show,” produced by Fee/Hedrick
Family Entertainment Group, will sail into Pigeon
Forge the summer of 2019 in the current Smoky Mountain Opry Theater
location. Plans have been submitted to the City of Pigeon Forge’s planning
commission for a huge $20 million renovation of the Smoky Mountain Opry
Theater to turn the theater into a pirate-themed dinner show. Pending the
approval process, construction should begin early November 2018. This will
not affect the running of The Christmas at the Smoky Mountain Opry show
which will proceed as usual.
The new Fee/Hedrick Family
Entertainment Group production will include a retractable water stage that
will be the largest in the Southeast. The show will feature moving ships
complete with brand new technology that is being designed just for this
project. The show will also include actors, stunt divers, acrobats, singers,
dancers and live animals.

“We’ve enlisted the help
of the best technological experts in the world to help with innovative
thematic and production elements,” said David Fee, president and chief
executive officer of Fee/Hedrick Family Entertainment Group. “Our writing
team has worked on projects for Broadway shows as well as Disney and Universal
productions. This show will be like no other in existence.”
In addition to the massive
changes within the building, the exterior is also slated for proposed upgrades
pending approval from the city. “I’m really excited about the addition
of the moat and drawbridge going into the front doors, said David Fee.
“We plan to incorporate special effects in the theming of the outside as
well as the inside.”
To incorporate the food aspect,
a kitchen will be added to the inside of the theater to make way for the
dinner portion of the show. The existing theater seats will be removed
and tables will be placed in the theater.
Magic Beyond Belief starring
Darren Romeo will move across the street from The Hatfield and McCoy Dinner
Feud to its own stand-alone theater and will open in March 2019. The company
hopes to keep The Smoky Mountain Opry Show and move it to a different location
to be announced at a later date.
