“Smoke on the Mountain Homecoming” Kicks Off Easley Foothills Playhouse's New Season

The season opener at Easley Foothills Playhouse will be “Smoke on the Mountain Homecoming” written by Connie Ray, Alan Bailey and Mike Craver. The show is the third in the Sanders family saga, a series about a traveling Southern Gospel band that goes from church to church preaching and singing bluegrass gospel tunes. This part of the series is set in 1945 at the end of World War II.

“Prosperity is just around the corner and from the vantage point of the 21st Century we can see the innocence that is now gone,” says the show’s producer Maurice Reed. “This play is full of fun, sometimes tetchy family dynamics and, best of all, some really good toe-tapping feel-good music.”

“Smoke on the Mountain Homecoming” runs August 9 to 25, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. For ticket information call 864-855-1817, go to www.showtix4u.com or email the Playhouse at foothillsplayhouse@att.net.
