Smoke on the Mountain for special performance at HGR

Update: The Saturday, May 25, 2019 performance at Homeplace on Green River has been cancelled.

TheatreFest!, the summer theatre at Lindsey Wilson College, will present the gospel musical Smoke on the Mountain on Saturday, May 25 at Homeplace on Green River, 5807 New Columbia Rd, Campbellsville, KY 42718.

The play - which is directed by Artistic Director of TheatreFest!, Robert Brock with music direction by Associate Artistic Director, Jeremy Cloyd - will be performed at 5pmCT/6pmET.

Smoke on the Mountain takes place on a Saturday night in June 1938 in the sanctuary of the Mount Pleasant Church in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina. The Sanders Family Singers are performing for the first time after a five-year hiatus from the gospel-singing circuit. The family of six have more than their share of testimonials to share with audiences from any background.


"For anyone that grew up in the South, the music in this play is like going home." Cloyd says. "And we couldn't be more excited to bring it back for a second summer!"

The show mixes both traditional gospel music with testimonials from the characters to create the feeling of an actual church service and is unlike any other theatre experience in the area.

Cloyd also says that the play is about "having a commitment to family and to the glory of life" and that this commitment is what makes the play a unique experience for audiences.

"I'm sure the lovable characters and beautiful music will resonate with the people in South Central Kentucky." Says Brock.

Audiences will be familiar with Burl and Vera, two parents trying to do what is best for their kids, Dennis and Denise, the twins, and June, the "sign-language" singer.

Space is limited so make your reservations early by calling or e-mailing Phil Hanna at (270) 384-2894 or cphanna51@msn.com.
