The Jabez Country Opry tells the story of the last night of a small Kentucky honky-tonk and the performers, past and present, who gather for one final show before the building is torn to the ground, all in the name of progress. This new work by playwright Mark Roberts, author of New Country and the creator of TV's Mike And Molly, features original music by Bloodshot recording artist and Grammy nominee Robbie Fulks. It will be presented concert style, the actors performing with a live country band led by Mr. Fulks.
