This is different. Today I rode over to the Taproot Theatre for the last day of Smoke On The Mountain. I got the idea a couple months ago when I happened to pass by the theatre and later looked them up online. Then, today, I wanted to go for a motorcycle ride, and a lightbulb was lit.
The show was outstanding. The theatre's description looks like this:
Halleluiah, the Mount Pleasant Baptist Church is lifting its voice in song again. This time it's 1945. The war is over and the Sanders Family has returned to "sing Dennis Sanders in" as the new pastor of the Mount Pleasant Baptist Church! All of your favorite characters are back, singin', testifyin' and filling the air with bluegrass, folk and gospel tunes to set your hands clappin' and your feet tappin'.
That pretty much sums it up. The Sanders family is full of great characters. They spend two hours telling funny stories and performing some great bluegrass and gospel music. I was very impressed by the whole production. So much so that I'm already planning on going to their next show, Enchanted April, at the end of September. There is an intimacy, and an unpredictability, that comes with the live performance that you just don't get from TV and movies. I really like it.
