INDIANAPOLIS — One of the most unforgettable families to ever step foot on the Beef & Boards stage has come once again this summer for more entertaining bluegrass Gospel fun. Back by unprecedented demand and on stage through Aug. 18, the hilarious musical Smoke on the Mountain signals the return of the lovable Singing Sanders Family.
Set in 1938, Smoke on the Mountain tells the story of the first Saturday Night Gospel Sing at a country church in North Carolina’s Smoky Mountains. The show features two dozen rousing bluegrass songs played and sung by the Sanders Family, a traveling group making its return to performing after a five-year hiatus. Pastor Oglethorpe, the enthusiastic minister of Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, has enlisted the Sanders Family in his efforts to bring his tiny congregation into “the modern world.”
There are 53 performances of Smoke on the Mountain scheduled. Tickets range from $37.50 to $62.50 and include Chef Odell Ward’s dinner buffet, fruit & salad bar, and select beverages. Discounts are available for children and groups of 20 or more. Parking is free.
For reservations call the Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre Box Office at 317-872-9664. Hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays.
