all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been reflected
in the financial statements. These adjustments are of a normal, recurring
nature. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, are not
necessarily indicative of those expected for the full year. Certain prior period
amounts have been adjusted and reclassified to conform to this period
presentation.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These consolidated
financial statements have been prepared under the presumption that users of the
unaudited interim consolidated financial information have either read or have
access to the Company's audited financial statements and footnotes thereto for
the year ended December 31, 1997, included in the Company's Form 10-KSB, as
amended filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, footnote
disclosures, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in
the Company's December 31, 1997 audited financial statements, have been omitted
from these interim consolidated financial statements. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such instructions, rules and regulations. These
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the footnotes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1997, included in the Company's Form
10-KSB as amended.

(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.
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 components of the purchase price and its allocation to the assets and
liabilities are as follows:
Purchase Price:
Liabilities assumed ..................................... $ 986,044
Issuance of 595,238 restricted shares of common stock.... 2,500,000

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:

Prepaid Expenses........................................ 157,516
Land.................................................... 11,275,507

------------
Deferred financing acquisition expenses ................ $16,631,918
============
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.

Year 2000
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. The Company's computer
equipment and software and devices with embedded technology that are
time-sensitive may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process accounting, payroll, database, network, and software transactions,
possible disruption of environmental, lighting, and security controls, possible
disruption of copier and fax capabilities, and loss of telephone voicemail
messages, in addition to other similar normal business activities. The Company
has undertaken various initiatives intended to ensure that its computer
equipment and software will function properly with respect to dates in the Year
2000 and thereafter. For this purpose, the term "computer equipment and
software" includes systems that are commonly thought of as Information
Technology ("IT") systems, including accounting, data processing, and
telephone/PBX systems and other miscellaneous systems, as well as systems that
are not commonly thought of as IT systems, such as alarm systems, fax machines,
air conditioning units, internally developed software and other miscellaneous
systems. Both IT and non-IT systems may contain embedded technology, which
complicates the Company's Year 2000 identification, assessment, remediation, and
testing efforts. Based upon its identification and assessment efforts to date,
the Company believes that certain of the computer equipment and software it
currently uses may require replacement or modification. In addition, in the
ordinary course of replacing computer equipment and software, the Company
attempts to obtain replacements that are Year 2000 compliant. Utilizing both
internal and external resources to identify and assess needed Year 2000
remediation, the Company currently anticipates that its Year 2000
identification, assessment, remediation and testing efforts, which began in
February 1998, will be completed by June 30, 1999. The Company estimates that as
of September 30, 1998, it had completed approximately 25% of the initiatives
that it believes will be necessary to fully address potential Year 2000 issues
relating to its computer equipment and software. The projects comprising the
remaining 75% of the initiatives are in process and expected to be completed on
or about June 30, 1999. Additionally, the Company has recently commenced its
initiatives relating to the non-IT systems. The following table describes the
Year 2000 initiatives as well as the Company's progress and the anticipated
completion dates as of September 30, 1998:
Time Percent Year 2000 Initiatives Table Complete
Initial IT system identification........................... 2/98 - 10/98 100%
Initial IT system assessment............................... 2/98 - 11/98 95%
Remediation and testing regarding central system issues.... 2/98 - 6/99 15%

Assessment regarding non-IT system issues.................. 2/98 - 11/98 65%
Remediation and testing regarding non-IT system issues..... 2/98 - 6/99 35%
The Company is in the process of communicating with its significant vendors and
service providers and strategic partners to determine the extent to which
interfaces with such entities are vulnerable to Year entities are Year 2000
compliant. This process is expected to be completed in December 1998. The
Company believes that the cost of its Year 2000 assessment, remediation and
testing efforts, as well as those costs related to Year 2000 issues of third
parties, are expected to approximate $250,000. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company had not incurred any external costs related to its Year 2000
identification, assessment, remediation and testing efforts. Other non-Year 2000
IT efforts have not been materially delayed or impacted by Year 2000
initiatives. The Company presently believes that the Year 2000 issue will not
pose significant operational problems for the Company. However, if all Year
2000issues are not properly identified, or assessment, remediation and testing
are not effected timely with respect to Year 2000 problems that are identified,
there can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issue will not materially adversely
impact the Company's results of operations or adversely affect the Company's
relationships with vendors, or others. Additionally, there can be no assurance
that the Year 2000 issues of other entities will not have a material adverse
impact on the Company's results of operations.

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' 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.
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 versus Three Months Ended September 30,
1998
Other Income. Other income for the three months ended September 30, 1998 was
attributable to a sign-on bonus received from a new supplier.

revenue and income derived in Nevada. There are no state or local income taxes
in Nevada. The Company accrued no federal income tax for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 three months ended 1997. Income taxes for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1998, relate to income taxes due in those states
other than Nevada in which the Company conducts business. At September 30, 1997
and 1998, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $1,616,791 and $3,958,386, respectively. Under Section 382 of the

carryforwards. The net deferred tax assets have a 100% valuation allowance, as
management cannot determine if it is more likely than not that the deferred tax
assets will be realized.

1998 compared to $4,674,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an
increase of $10,234,000, or 219.9%. The increase was attributable to the
inclusion of Gedco USA acquisition.

compared to $1,707,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an increase

September 30, 1998 compared to $320,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1997, an increase of $682,000 or 213.3%. This increase was attributable to an
increase in business and the inclusion of the Gedco Acquisition. Casino revenues
were approximately $4,415,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
compared to $6,068,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an decrease
of $663,000, or 12.9 % . The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction
in revenue generated from limited run casino shows.
Costs of Revenues. Total costs of revenues were $16,973,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 compared to $7,944,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, an increase of $9,030,000, or 113.7%. Costs of revenues
increased to 75.4% of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
as compared to 67.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. This increase
in cost of sales as percentage of 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 $4,092,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as
compared to $3,322,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an increase
of $770,000 or 23.2%. Selling, general and administrative costs decreased to
18.2% of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, as compared
to 28.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The decrease in total
cost is primarily the result of head cost reductions.
Operating Income. The Company's operating income was approximately $235,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to an operating loss of
$98,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an increase of $333,000.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 increased by $607,000, or 100.9%, as compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 1997. 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 for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 decreased by $120,000, or 13.6%, as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. 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 1998. Other Income. Other
income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was attributable to a
sign-on bonus received from a new supplier.

Income Taxes. The Company is a Nevada corporation with a substantial portion of
revenue and income derived in Nevada. There are no state or local income taxes
in Nevada. The Company accrued no federal income tax for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
and 1998, relate to income taxes due in those states other than Nevada in which
the Company conducts business. At September 30, 1997 and 1998, the Company had
federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,616,791 and
$3,958,386 respectively. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, certain
significant changes in ownership that the Company is currently undertaking may
restrict the future utilization of these tax loss carryforwards. The net
deferred tax assets have a 100% valuation allowance, as management cannot
determine if it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be
realized.
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

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.
