Smoke on the Mountain at Taproot Theatre

It’s the summer of 1938 in Appalachia, and the Sanders Family Singers have come to a Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, complete with banjos, mandolins, accordions, and all. After five years away from the gospel circuit, they’re back—and each member has a story to tell. Between bluegrass harmonies and heart-warming hymns, their stories hilariously and surprisingly spill out. This long-awaited toe-tappin’ and hand clappin’ production returns to Taproot for its 50th Anniversary with beloved artists and unforgettable comedy.
