The outdoor theatre officially opens with it's "Concert Under the Stars" - "a drive-in theatre without the cars". The design and developement of the theatre is by the award-winning, International Recording Artist, Kelli Grant. Kelli had owned the property for many years with its primary function being rental property. In 2017, she returned to east Texas from Las Vegas where she had been performing at the Majestik Theatre and 3 years prior to that in Branson. The building and property were in shambles and the disappointment was almost overwhelming. She needed to make repairs and take care of the property which is her 401k or IRA as to others. As she began making repairs an idea came to her. At first it was the small. intimate indoor theatre but then she noticed the natural landscape behind the theatre was perfect for an amphitheatre. Her financee just happened to be in construction. With his help, she designed the OUTDOOR theatre. The idea was and is very unique and an amazingly enjoyable venue for both the audience and entertainer. The back porch was adapted to a stage. The level half acre immediately behind the theatre and the terracing of a hill beyond that created a huge gallery area capable of handling 3 to 400 spectators. She added a dance floor with sparkling fairy lights around it with the results being a wonderful romantic experience of dancing under the moon and stars. We have some beautiful evenings here in east Texas. Come and enjoy them at the Kokomo Theatre Outdoor Amphitheatre.

The idea, concept, "a drive-in theatre without the cars" with a nostaglic "Music & Movie" format. After the concert the spectators can sit back in their lawnchairs and watch a FREE MOVIE of comedy, Sci-Fi classics, musicals, film noir ... All for a Gate Pass.

it's one of the most unique and entertaining venues anywhere and the Queen of Swing has performed just about everywhere: concert halls, casinos, theatres, festivals, etc  ...
it is so much fun. I LOVE IT!!

We think you will agree. Oh, the theatre has a "Snack Bar" like the old drive-in movie theatres with: Hotdogs, Candy, Popcorn, Chips, Frito Pie, Soda, Water and their signature Kokomoat Float (ice cream float with a twist) ...

SCI-FI  FESTIVAL
On June 24th, 1947 Kenneth Arnold logged a sighting of 9 saucer shaped objects. A couple of weeks later what is now referred to as the
"Incident" took place in Roswell, New Mexico with the horror and fear of an ALIEN invasion. The country was captivated with fear as the "Flying Saucers", or UFO's began to appear everywhere. The news monopolized the airwaves and now the government now confesses they've known all along we were not alone in the universe.
  Sightings of UFO's has us all "watching the skies" (a line from "the Thing form Another World" ...)
