Uptown Crown Trip   May 22

CHURCH BASEMENT LADIES is universal. These “steel magnolias” of the church exist in every faith and every organization where solid and dedicated behind-the-scenes women work tirelessly to keep stomachs full and coffee brewing for every important event from weddings to funerals to “pot luck” suppers. Complete with twelve songs from “Closer To Heaven” (In The Church Basement), to “The Mother of the Bride”, audiences will recognize and enjoy these characters. From the elderly matriarch of the kitchen, to the young bride in training, they stave off potential disasters and keep the Pastor on due course, while thoroughly enjoying (and tolerating) each other as we see the church year unfold from beneath the House of God. Church Basement Ladies is perfect entertainment for the entire family, for friends, and for groups. Good clean laughs, memorable and hysterical characters, wonderful clever music, and nostalgia. This is most certainly true!  We will leave from the Sheridan parking lot at about 8:00am.  We will get there about 11:00 and the buffet starts at 11:30am with the curtain time at 12:30pm.  We should be home by 6:00pm.  Call our office and let us know if you plan to go with us.  The cost is $36 and includes everything.
