The Chicken Ranch is as clean, moral, and wholesome as a whorehouse can get but that’s still not good enough for a meddling TV preacher man in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, a musical-comedy starring two of our favorites: Dolly Parton as Miss Mona Stangley and Burt Reynolds as Lanville County Sheriff Ed Earl Dodd. These friends-with-benefits must fight to let the good times roll at the popular Chicken Ranch when television personality Melvin P. Thorpe goes on a consumer watchdog rampage to expose the illegal activities. Come watch the Chicken Ranchers since, dance, and sleep their way to continued success and into your hearts on the big screen!

How the book giveaway works: Purchase your tickets in advance (at least two days before the showtime), and you will be entered into a random lottery drawing. If your name is drawn, we will email you to notify you that you can pick up your book before the screening.
