2019 Blueberry Festival Musical Comedy: Blueberries on the Roof
Osbourne (Obie) Smith is the patriarch of Smithfield Farms, a huge parcel of blueberry fields along the coast of Washington County. With a large, extended family of poppas, mommas, sons and daughters – their lucrative blueberry grounds are threatened by rising sea levels. Anticipating the need for a new seaport as shipping lanes thru the Arctic become available, interested parties want to acquire Smithfield Farms. The Smiths do not consider that a good idea. After all, there is tradition.
Not being able to hold back the inevitable tide, Smithfield Farm’s blueberries are flooded just before harvest time. Fearing the whole crop is lost the Smith’s brainstorm for ideas.
Blueberry Fairies and the Machias Wild Blueberry Tambourine Corp, will undoubtedly come to the rescue!
