Maryville originally featured the Rock-afire Explosion, as all other Showbiz locations did. they would have it for a few years, until 1991, when they received Concept Unification replacing the Rock-afire Explosion for Munch's Make Believe Band but kept the Showbiz name and they got the 1988 Remodel sometime later. They would remain this way until the store was permanently closed in 1995 for unknown reasons. After closure, it became a Gym called Workout Anytime. As of December 2023, the Workout Anytime is still there.
Stages
