Casting is Set for "Smokey"
Set to Run Oct. 2-5

The Delta will soon enjoy some of the greatest rock-and-roll classics ever written when Broadway's longest-running musical revue, and the second musical in a row from Delta Center Stage, opens in early October. Just released this year after a 10 year run on Broadway, "Smokey Joe’s Café" features 40 songs from the golden age of rock-and-roll, including Treat Me Nice, Hound Dog, On Broadway, Fools Fall in Love and Stand By Me. Described by the New York Times as "Two hours of pure musical joy!" Smokey Joe's Cafe features the hits of Elvis Presley, The Drifters, and a host of rock legends from a simpler, more innocent time in America, all from the songwriting duo of Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller.

Local Juke Joint is Visited by
a Japanese Film Crew
Last Saturday Po Monkey’s Lounge in Merigold was filmed by a Japanese film crew for a T.V. documentary. This documentary will feature places from New Orleans to Memphis informing the Japanese public about the “off the beaten path” areas of the United States. Luther Brown, the director of the Delta Center for Culture and Learning at Delta State University, helped compile a list for the Japanese crew, who wanted to learn to cook soul food, film a juke joint, and catch catfish on the Mississippi River. Po Monkey’s is located in a shack which was built in the early 1900’s. The atmosphere and the music are what make’s Po Monkey’s Lounge an excellent illustration of our local culture.
