Chuck Watkins (3)

Chuck Watkins and his homegrown "opry," was a fairly modest operation which took over an old theater in Osage Beach, Missouri previously operated by cowboy singer Bob Nolan, of the Sons of the Pioneers. First opened in 1968, Nolan's Country Music Hall featured a revolving stage, a feature that Watkins kept running. Although the Ozark Jubilee had a home base near the Lake Of The Ozarks, they also toured regionally through the South and the upper Midwest, as seen in show notices in various local newspapers.
