The Ozark Jubilee was a live, nationally broadcast country-western variety show originating from the Jewell Theater -- “the heart of the Ozarks” -- in downtown Springfield from 1955 through 1960. Many country music stars began or advanced their careers by appearing on the Jubilee including Porter Wagoner, Patsy Cline, Brenda Lee, Johnny Cash, and the Philharmonics. Missouri State University Libraries is raising money to digitize 60 episodes that reside in kinescope form in the University of California, Los Angeles Film and Television Archive. This episode was made possible by the generous support of the Martin Family Foundation (Ruth D. Martin, administrator).
