Farmland Center Presents Swann Song

  From the official press release with some minor corrections:   Our 6th season of theatre in Farmland kicks off with a brand new musical comedy written by our very own Tom Cherry, Swann Song: A Southern Gospel Revue! Equal parts hilarious down-home comedy and rousing Southern gospel songs, this is a show that is sure to appeal to everyone!   It’s Saturday night in 1940 and everyone in Pine Knob, Kentucky turns on the radio to listen to The Feather-Fine Graham Cracker Radio Hour with The Swanns! Led by sisters Mae and Loretta, the Swanns perform beloved traditional songs and all of your gospel favorites every Saturday, but tonight is a special night. It’s their last show before moving on to the bright lights of Nashville, but don’t expect any tears! The Swanns promise an evening of celebration with special guests and plenty of homespun fun!   Tickets are $12 and include dessert service during intermission. Performances are March 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 22, 23, and 24. All shows are at 7:00pm, except the Sunday shows (March 10th and 24th) are at 1:00pm. Reservations are required and are available now at 468-7631.

Swann Song is directed by Farmland residents Judy and Jerry Cole, and stars local actors Rita Wessel, Hannah Kirkpatrick, Sean Orlosky, Bob Green, Judy Oakerson, Kevin Cole, and Geoff Witt as "Ollie Noodle".

This show is also available to travel to your church or event!
