Smoke on the Mountain
by
Alan Bailey and Constance Ray
February 23 – April 29, 2007
Set in the 1930s, this good time
bluegrass gospel musical
introduces the singing Sanders
family, who perform their
traditional and original gospel
songs for the members of the
Mount Pleasant Baptist Church in
Mount Pleasant, NC. Pastor
Oglethorpe welcomes the family
to the church, where their
individual stories and beliefs are
shared during the concert. With
the audience serving as the
“congregation,” Smoke on the
Mountain lovingly recreates a
delightful and musically
unforgettable slice of Americana.
The Odd Couple
by Neil Simon
May 18 – August 5, 2007
The most hilariously mismatched
roommates in the history of
Broadway comedy are back at
Hanover Tavern in this brand
new production of one of
America’s favorite comedies. Last
produced by Barksdale in 1973,
Neil Simon’s irresistibly funny
play tells the story of two friends
(one divorced, the other recently
separated) who decide to share
an apartment … with
sidesplitting results. Don’t miss
the sheer pleasure of
rediscovering all over again the
reasons we all first fell in love
with The Odd Couple.
Deathtrap
by Ira Levin
September 7 – October 21, 2007
Sidney Bruhl is a middle-aged
playwright famous for his oh-so-
clever whodunits, but he hasn’t
had a hit in twenty years. When
one of his former students sends
him the only draft of a new
murder mystery, Sidney devises
a plan to ensure his own fortune.
Will Sidney’s scheme lead him
back to Broadway? Will the
student be the victim of malicious
jealousy? Will Sidney’s wife be
able to withstand the horror in
her household? Will the eccentric
psychic who is visiting Sidney’s
neighbors unearth the nastiness
next door? Only one answer is
certain: missing this classic
Broadway thriller would be a
deadly mistake.
