(2) Subsquent Events


Additional ICCMIC Financing

         On October 7, 1998,  the  Company's  first  mortgage  lender,  Imperial
Credit  Commercial  Mortgage  Investment Corp.  ("ICCMIC") loaned the Company an
additional  $550,000,  secured by a first deed of trust on the Company's Legends
in Concert  Theater in Surfside Beach,  South Carolina.  In connection with this
additional  financing,  the Company  modified the Common Stock purchase  warrant
that the  Company  issued to ICCMIC  on March  13,  1998 (and the  corresponding
warrant  agreement) by reducing the exercise price of ICCMIC's  325,000 warrants
to purchase  shares of the Company's  Common Stock from $4.44 per share to $1.00
per share.

DY/DX Corp. Common Stock Purchase Agreement

     On October 2, 1998,  the Company  entered into a stock  purchase  agreement
with DY/DX Corp., an Illinois  corporation,  to sell up to 500,000 shares of the
Company's  Common  Stock  at an  aggregate  purchase  price of  $500,000.  As of
November 4, 1998,  DY/DX Corp.  had  purchased  55,000  shares of the  Company's
Common Stock pursuant to this agreement.
<PAGE>


Election of Board Members

         On July 15, 1998, the Company's  Board of Directors  elected Mel Woods,
President  of Fox  Family  Worldwide,  as a director  on its board,  to fill the
vacancy  created by Nelson Foster's  resignation  from his post as a director of
the Company on June 26, 1998.

         On September 8, 1998, the Company's underwriter,  Whale Securities Co.,
LP ("Whale") exercised its right to appoint a designee to the Company's board of
directors.  In order to create a vacancy for Whale's  designee,  director  Jules
Haimovitz  resigned  his post as a director of the Company on September 8, 1998.
Whale named Matt Gohd as its designee, who was subsequently elected to the board
of directors on September 9, 1998

(3) Loss Per Share

      On March 3,  1997,  the FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standard No. 128. Earnings per share (SFAS 128). This  pronouncement  provides a
different  method of  calculating  earnings per share than is currently  used in
accordance  with  APB  15,  Earnings  per  Share.  SFAS  128  provides  for  the
calculation  of Basic and Diluted  earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share
includes no dilution  and is computed  by dividing  income  available  to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities
that  could  share in the  earnings  of the  entity,  similar  to fully  diluted
earnings per share.  Except where the  provisions of the Securities and Exchange
Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 are applicable, potential dilutive
securities  have been  excluded  in all years  presented  in the  Statements  of
Operations when the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

         For the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  potential  dilutive
securities  representing  421,094  outstanding options and 2,077,000 outstanding
warrants are not included,  since their effect would be  anti-dilutive.  For the
nine months ended September 30, 1998, potential dilutive securities representing
773,853  outstanding  stock options and 4,480,956  outstanding  warrants are not
included, since their effect would be anti-dilutive.

(4) Commitments and Contingencies

         The  Company  is a party to  various  legal  proceedings  in which  the
adverse  parties are seeking  damages  from the  Company.  While there can be no
assurance that any of the  instituted or threatened  lawsuits will be settled or
decided in favor of the Company,  the management of the Company does not believe
the final  resolution of these matters will have a material  adverse effect upon
the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

(5) Business Acquisition

Gedco USA, Inc. Acquisition

         On March 13, 1998,  the Company  completed its  acquisition  of certain
assets  from  Gedco  USA,  Inc.  and its  affiliates  for a  purchase  price  of
$14,000,000,  consisting  of  $11,500,000  in cash and 595,238  shares of Common
Stock valued at $2,500,000 (the "Gedco Acquisition").

             Included in the Gedco  Acquisition  were  substantially  all of the
income producing  assets and associated real property of Orlando  Entertains and
LA Entertains,  consisting of King Henry's Feast,  Blazing Pianos piano bar, the
Fort Liberty shopping  complex that includes a Wild Bill's Dinner Theater,  each
of which is located in greater Orlando, Florida, and a second Wild Bill's Dinner
Theater located in Buena Park, California. Gerard O'Riordan,  President of Gedco
USA, Inc., joined the Company as President of On Stage Theaters,  Inc., a wholly
subsidiary  of the Company that manages the acquired  dinner  theaters and piano
bar as well as other selected theaters.

            The  Company  funded  the cash  portion  of the  purchase  price and
transaction  fees and expenses  with $12.5  million of mortgage  financing  from
Imperial Credit  Commercial  Mortgage  Investment Corp.  ("ICCMIC").  ICCMIC has
committed a total of  $20,000,000,  of which  $7,500,000 is remaining to finance
the Company's  future real estate related  acquisitions.  In connection with the
loan  agreement  entered  into  between the Company and ICCMIC on March 13, 1998
(the "Loan  Agreement"),  the  Company  granted  ICCMIC the right to provide the
Company with up to an additional $30 million of similar mortgage  financing.  In
connection  with the financing,  the Company issued ICCMIC and Imperial  Capital
Group LLC (an affiliate of ICCMIC), an aggregate of 575,000 warrants immediately
exercisable  into shares of Common  Stock at an exercise  price of $4.44,  which
price was adjusted on October 7, 1998. See "Additional ICCMIC Financing" in Note
2 above. In addition,  concurrently with the ICCMIC financing,  Mark Karlan, the
President of ICCMIC,  was named a member of the  Company's  Board of  Directors,
filling a vacancy created by the resignation of Kenneth Berg.

     The  costs  of  acquisition  increased  primarily  relates  to the  lenders
origination fee of $750,000, legal fees of $240,000, financing fees of $100,000,
recording fees of $100,000, and accounting fees of $125,000.

      The  acquisition  was accounted for as a purchase and the assets  acquired
were  recorded at a fair market  value.  The  building and  equipment  are being
depreciated over twenty and three years,  respectively,  under the straight-line
method.  The costs of  acquisition  incurred  primarily  relates to the  lenders
origination fee of $750,000, legal fees of $240,000, financing fees of $100,000,
recording fees of $100,000,  and accounting fees of $125,000.  The allocation of
the purchase price was as follows:


Cash .......................................................         $   383,444

         The assets acquired and liabilities  assumed were transferred to either
the Company's  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  On Stage  Theaters,  Inc., or a wholly
owned subsidiary of On Stage Theaters, Inc., concurrent with the acquisition.

         The Company has elected to  consolidate  the  operations  of the assets
acquired in the Gedco Acquisition  retroactively to January 1, 1998.  Therefore,
the  pre-acquisition  gain  of  $366,516  has  been  added  to the  consolidated
statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The effect
of this  consolidation of operations prior to acquisition was an increase in net
sales of approximately $3,099,071.

assets from Calvin Gilmore Productions, Inc. ("CGP"), an affiliate of Fox Family
Worldwide,  for a purchase  price of  $1,000,000  in cash and 206,612  shares of
Common Stock valued at $723,142 (the "Fox Acquisition").

         Included in the Fox Acquisition were  substantially all of CGP's income
producing assets and associated real and personal property in the greater Myrtle
Beach,  South  Carolina  area,  consisting  of the fee  simple  purchase  of The
Surfside  Beach  Theater,  which  the  Company  had  leased  from  CGP  for  its
presentation  of its flagship  Legends in Concert  production  since 1995, and a
leasehold  interest  in The Eddie  Miles  Theater.  In  connection  with the Fox
Acquisition, Mel Woods, the Chief Operating Officer of Fox Family Worldwide, was
subsequently elected as a member of the Company's Board of Directors,  filling a

transaction fees and expenses with $1,100,000 million of mortgage financing from
ICCMIC.

Three Months Ended  September  30, 1997 versus Three Months Ended  September 30,
1998

        Net Revenues.  Revenues  increased by 58.9% to $8,060,000  for the three
months ended  September  30, 1998  compared to  $5,071,000  for the three months
ended  September 30, 1997. The Company's  revenue is derived from four principal
operating corporations: Casinos, Events, Merchandise and Theaters.

         Casinos  revenues were  approximately  $1,356,000  for the three months
ended  September  30, 1998  compared to  $1,736,000  for the three  months ended
September 30, 1997, a decrease of $380,000, or 21.9%. The decrease was primarily
attributable to decrease in revenue  generated from limited run casino shows and
the Legends's show at the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino.

         Events  revenues were $775,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1998  compared to $569,000  for the three months ended  September  30, 1997,  an
increase of $206,000 or 36.2%. This increase was mainly attributable to increase
in business.

         Merchandise  revenues were approximately  $786,000 for the three months
ended  September  30,  1998  compared  to $166,000  for the three  months  ended
September 30, 1997, an increase of $621,000 or 374.1% . This increase was mainly
attributable  to  an  increase  in  photo  sales  and  the  inclusion  of  Gedco
Acquisition properties.

         Theaters  revenues were  approximately  $5,143,000 for the three months
ended  September  30, 1998  compared to  $2,600,000  for the three  months ended
September  30,  1997,  an increase of  $2,543,000,  or 97.8%.  This  increase in
revenues was primarily attributed to new show openings in Branson, Missouri, and
Toronto, Canada and the inclusion of Gedco Acquisition properties.

         Costs of  Revenues.  Total costs of revenues  were  $6,051,000  for the
three  months ended  September  30, 1998  compared to $ 3,471,000  for the three
months ended September 30, 1997, an increase of $2,580,000,  or 74.4%.  Costs of
revenues increased to 75.1% of net revenues for the three months ended September
30, 1998,  as compared to 68.4% for the three months ended  September  30, 1997.
This  increase  in  cost  of  revenues  as a % of  net  revenues  was  primarily
attributable  to a change in the mix of the Company's  revenues  from  primarily
theater shows to theater and dinner theater shows.

               Selling,   General  and  Administrative.   Selling,  general  and
administrative  costs were  approximately  $1,271,000 for the three months ended
September  30,  1998 as  compared  to  $1,375,000  for the  three  months  ended
September  30,  1997,  a decrease of  $104,000,  or 7.6%.  Selling,  general and
administrative  costs  decreased  to 15.8% of net  revenues for the three months
ended  September  30,  1998,  as  compared to 27.1% for the three  months  ended
September 30, 1997, which was primarily attributable to staff reductions.

               Operating   Income.   The   Company's    operating   income   was
approximately $46,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to
an operating  loss of $58,000 for the three months ended  September 30, 1997, an
increase of $104,000.

         Depreciation  and  Amortization.  Depreciation  and  amortization  were
$576,000 for the three months ended  September 30, 1998 increased by $408,000 or
144.3%,  as compared to the three months ended  September 30, 1997, and increase
of $293,000 or 103.6%.  The increase was primarily  due to capital  additions to
current  shows,  new shows,  and an  increase in assets as a result of the Gedco
Acquisition.

         Interest  Expense,  Net.  Interest  expense was  $427,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1998 decreased by $391,000,  or 55.4%, as compared to
$681,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease of $279,00 or
39.4%.  The decrease was primarily due to one-time  interest  expense related to
the  conversion  of  debentures  and the original  issue  discount of the bridge
financing, which was incurred in 1997, but not in 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

        The  Company  has  historically  met its  working  capital  requirements
through a combination  of cash flow from  operations,  equity and debt offerings
and traditional bank financing.  The Company anticipates,  based on its proposed
plans  and  assumptions  relating  to  its  operations  (including   assumptions
regarding  the  anticipated  timetable  of its new show  openings  and the costs
associated  therewith),   that  the  Company's  current  cash,  cash  equivalent
balances,  anticipated revenue from operations and its working capital line will
be  sufficient  to  fund  its  current   operations  and  contemplated   capital
requirements  through  December 31, 1998.  However,  the  Company's  acquisition
strategy also will require additional debt and/or equity financing. In the event
the Company's plans or assumptions change, prove to be incorrect, or if balances
and/or  anticipated  revenues  otherwise prove to be  insufficient,  the Company
would need to revise its expansion  strategy  (which  revision could include the
curtailment,  delay or elimination of certain of its anticipated  productions or
the funding of such productions through  arrangements with third parties,  which
would require it to relinquish rights to a substantial  portion of its revenues)
and/or seek additional financing prior to the end of such period. The Company is
currently seeking private equity financing and has hired Imperial Capital, LLC.

        For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company had a net cash
deficit from operations of $509,000 in operations. As of September 30, 1997, the
Company had approximately $3,593,000 in cash and cash equivalents.  For the nine
months  ended  September  30,  1998,  the  Company had a net cash  deficit  from
operations of $958,000  in  operations.  As  of September 30, 1998,  the Company
had  $784,000 in cash and cash  equivalents.  The  operating  deficits  for both
periods were primarily  attributable  to business  seasonality  and  pre-opening
costs for new shows.

        The net cash used in  investing  activities  for the nine  months  ended
September 30, 1997 of $728,000.  The net cash used in investing  activities  for
the quarter ended September 30, 1998 of $14,728,000,  was primarily attributable
to direct acquisition costs related to acquisitions.

        Net cash  provided by  financing  activities  for the nine months  ended
September 30, 1997 of $4,539,000  was  primarily  attributable  to proceeds from
sale of common  stock.  Net cash provided by financing  activities  for the nine
months ended  September 30, 1998 of $14,146,000,  was primarily  attributable to
ICCMIC's funding of $12,500,000 for the Gedco Acquisition and $1,100,000 million
for the Fox Acquisition.

        At September 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of  approximately
$4,127,000, primarily attributable from proceeds of the sale of common stock. At
September 30, 1998, the Company had a working capital  deficit of  approximately
$887,031, primarily attributable to the pre-opening costs of new shows.

Working Capital Line

        In May 1997, First Security Bank of Nevada ("First  Security")  issued a
line of credit to the Company for up to $250,000. Borrowings under such facility
bear  variable  interest at 1.5% over the First  Security  Bank of Idaho's index
(10% per year as of the facility's  inception)  and are due on demand.  On March
28,  1998,  First  Security  increased  the  line of  credit  from  $250,000  to
$1,000,000 and extended the expiration date of the line to March 25, 1999. As of
September 30, 1998, the Company had drawn $1,000,000 on the line of credit.

Mortgage Financing Commitment

           On March 13, 1998,  the Company  entered into the Loan Agreement with
ICCMIC  pursuant  to which  ICCMIC  agreed to  provide  the  Company  with up to
$20,000,000  of  mortgage  financing.  On  March  28,  1998,  the  Company  used
$12,500,000  of said facility to fund the cash portion of the Gedco  Acquisition
and related fees  subsequently used $1,100,000 on June 30, 1998 to fund the cash
portion  of the Fox  Acquisition  and  $550,000  on  October 7, 1998 to help the
Company with it's working  capital needs. In connection with the Loan Agreement,
the Company  provided ICCMIC with the right to provide the Company with up to an
additional  $30,000,000 of mortgage related  financing.  In addition  concurrent
with the ICCMIC  financing,  Mark Karlan,  the President of ICCMIC,  was named a
member of the  Company's  Board of Directors,  filling a vacancy  created by the
resignation of Kenneth Berg.

PART II .  OTHER INFORMATION



Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.


         On  May  28,  1998,   Silver  State  Property   Management,   a  Nevada
corporation,  Roger A. Bergmann Enterprises, a Nevada corporation, and R.E. Lyle
Corp., a Nevada  corporation  filed a complaint in the Second Judicial  District
Court of the  State of Nevada in and for the  County of Washoe  alleging,  among
other things, that John W. Stuart, acting as an agent, Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive  Officer of On Stage  Entertainment,  Inc.,  breached an alleged
oral agreement to purchase the Plaintiff's  respective  interests in the Legends
in Concert  production in Hawaii for an aggregate  purchase price of $1,000,000.
The Company has filed an answer to this complaint.
This suit is currently in the discovery stage of litigation.

         On August 20,  1998, a complaint  was filed  against the Company by the
trustee  of the  United  States  Bankruptcy  Court for the  District  of Nevada,
alleging  Breach of Contract,  Monies Due and Owing and Turnover of the Property
to the Estate.  The basis of the  complaint  stems from the  purchase of certain
furniture by an  unauthorized  third party who  purchased  the  furniture  while
purporting to be a representative of the Company.  The Company believes it has a
valid defense for this claim based upon fraud and misrepresentation. The Company
has recently filed its Answer to this Complaint.

         On September  25,  1998,  the Company  successfully  defended all three
counts of the complaint  filed in March 1997 by Benny R. Pittman,  a shareholder
of Grand Strand Entertainment, Inc. This suit arose out of dispute as to whether
the Company wrongfully terminated a licensing agreement with Mr. Pittman for the
control of the Company's Legend in Concert  production in Surfside Beach,  South
Carolina.  While  the  Company  prevailed  on  all  the  counts  alleged  in the
complaint,  the Company  stipulated to allow the arbitrator to resolve an equity
claim of  quantum  meruit,  so as to avoid  the  possibility  of the suit  being
re-filed against the Company alleging this cause of action,  among others, which
claim was resolved by the  arbitrator  in the favor of the plaintiff for a total
of $15,400 in  consideration  for the  substantial  amount of work the plaintiff
provided on behalf of the Company to open the Legends production.
