Dolly PARRRRGHton's amusement park is growing.

(Pigeon Forge, TN)  --  Dolly Parton is opening a pirate attraction at her Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge. 

The show currently operates on the southern coast of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.  It features pirates battling on full-sized ships in a 15-foot-deep indoor lagoon. 

Parton says, "The show has been so successful in Myrtle Beach that we kept looking at Pigeon Forge and wondering why we didn't already have a Pirates show there." 

Site construction is expected to begin in January.
