This act was kind of schlocky but fun. We were definitely amused by the act. You don't see stuff like this often. It was kind of funny to see the same guys recycled into another shootout but make believe is part of the deal. The act does cement the idea that there was a terrific amount of violence by gun...

We saw the performance today, and were very pleased with how informative and entertaining it was. The actors were all engaging and realistic. They were willing to take pictures during and after the show. Not only was it exciting, it was also informative. At only $7 per person, it was very affordable and worth the money! I will definitely take... More

Although I live only 1/2 hr. away, I decided to give Tombstone a visit. I took in all the attractions & was most impressed with the gunfight show at the Wyatt Earp Theater. It was the most historically correct show in town (including the OK Corral). A small but talented cast, it was both entertaining and informative. Well worth the... More

$7 is too much to see the same 3 actor's do 5 or 6 scenes - some that seemed too long. In retrospect we should have opted for the OK Corral Shoot-out $10 deal which seems to included a more professional show, PLUS tickets to other meaningful sites in town. Now I know ... Hope you don't have to learn... More

The actors were funny and seemed to enjoy what they did, the history was interesting, even my 8 year old daughter paid attention throughout. She especially loved the gunfights. It was fun, but expensive - $10 per person.

We saw a costumed actor on Allen street beckoning tourists to see the show which was about to start. $7 per seat, it was a fun hour-long show featuring 3 separate skits. Loud gunfights, a history lesson and some humor. The actors all have a good energy and look very authentic to the period. Not appropriate for youngsters because of... More

Don't bother, it's hardly theater! Boring from start to finish.! The OK Corral show on the actual gunfight site on the other hand was performed by real actors who had obviously put ALOT more thought and effort into it.!

My boyfriend and I went to Tombstone on a whim. I have not even seen the Kurt Russell movie. With only two hours to explore what was once one of the wildest frontiers I must say visiting The Wyatt Earp Theater was a good investment. This is what modern day social studies class should be like. It is a mixture... More

Without tourism, Tombstone wouldn't exist anymore. So, once you precised it, what else can you do once you're there, if not going to a show and have a beer in a saloon ?! We were with our two kids, aged 8 & 10, boys, and obviously, they loved the show even if they couldn't understand a word (being French speaking).... More
