Smoke on the Mountain Homecoming
SEPTEMBER 24 - NOVEMBER 7, 2010
Written by Connie Ray; Conceived by Alan Bailey; Musical Arrangements by Mike Craver
It’s October, 1945 and the gospel-singing Sanders Family is back together again! The war is over and America’s years of prosperity are just beginning. But there’s another kind of rite of passage at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, where Reverend Mervin Oglethorpe is giving his last service. He’s been called to preach in Texas, and he’s already bought a ten-gallon hat and is preparing to ride into the sunset with his wife, June, who is eight months pregnant. Tomorrow morning, young Dennis Sanders takes over as Mount Pleasant’s pastor. Join the Sanders Family as they send Mervin and June off in style, with hilarious and touching stories and twenty-five toe-tapping Bluegrass Gospel favorites.

Winner of four Outer Critics Circle Awards, including Best Off Broadway Musical, in its original New York production, this hilarious international hit is one of Barksdale’s biggest hits! The show is a fundraiser put on by the Little Sisters of Hoboken to raise money to bury sisters accidentally poisoned by the convent cook, Sister Julia (Child of God). Updated with new jokes, additional lyrics, new arrangements and a brand new song, you won’t want to miss this zany musical!
