Cumming Playhouse Presents SMOKE ON THE WATER, 6/2-26

By:

The Cumming Playhouse is proud to present SMOKE ON THE MOUNTAIN, back by popular demand! The show will run June 2 through 26.

SMOKE ON THE MOUNTAIN is a musical comedy about a family of gospel singers in economically depressed 1938, a little family feudin' along with keeping the faith in Mount Pleasant Baptist Church somewhere in the North Carolina hills.

Young Reverend Oglethorpe has invited the Sanders Family Singers to provide an "upliftin' evening of singin' and witnessin'" for his very staid flock. What he and the church get is a surprising evening of wonderful and rousing music and more than two dozen songs, many of them vintage Gospel and bluegrass favorites, mixed in with hilarious stories from the more -- or less -- devout members of the Sanders family.

The audience is invited to pull up a pew and join in the rollicking good time. Audiences of all ages will leave this richly entertaining evening clapping, singing, laughing and cheering.

Back by very popular demand, the 2011 production of Smoke on the Mountain is presented by the North Georgia Acting Company, based out of Jasper, Georgia.
