Bare Stage/Simple Set

Synopsis

Tall tales and rollicking songs in the Diamond Studs and Pump Boys and Dinettes tradition transport audiences to the Outer Banks for a pleasant spate of fun and fishing.

Staging a benefit concert to save the Corncake Inlet Inn, the lively cast of fishermen musicians sing up a storm, tell fish stories and ghost stories, and relate accounts of first loves and ones that got away.

Press Reviews

"Pump Boy's cousin gives a good taste of the Carolina coast.... A breezy, whimsical musical review...[that is] the next best thing to a trip to the coast."

— Wall Street Journal

"A pure salt watered delight...For a near vacation experience, it would be hard to beat."

— N.Y. Post
