Whether you're building a theater from the ground up, or just in need of new stage lights, Backstage Connections provides the expert services you need and the customer service you deserve.

After several seasons in Branson's entertainment industry working for the Welk Resort Theater, Tom Gass saw a missing link: Branson, then home to more than twenty theaters, had no theatrical-based supply shop. In 1996, Tom and his wife Noelle founded Backstage Connections, establishing Branson's first local theatrical service provider. 

With over twenty five years of combined experience and the most superior industry hardware, Backstage Connections offers a multitude of services, fit for a host of clients – from local theaters to traveling shows and companies such as Hilton Hotels and the Miss Universe Organization. Acting as a front end for several theatrical suppliers, Backstage Connections is an expert in stage lighting, stage curtains, rigging, props and sound.
