King Mackerel & The Blues Are Running
May 23 – May 26
The North Carolina Coastal Federation and the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center present The Coastal Cohorts’ beloved show King Mackerel & the Blues are Running, featuring the musical and story-telling talents of Don Dixon, Bland Simpson, and Jim Wann.
Join us for an evening of tall tales, rollicking songs, and theatrical performance filled with music and stories about fishing and life along the Carolina coastline. Called “a pure salt watered delight” by the late Clive Barnes, New York Post theater critic, the lively cast of fishermen-musicians are sure to delight as they sing up a storm, tell fish stories and ghost stories, and relate accounts of first loves and ones that got away.
Proceeds benefit both the North Carolina Coastal Federation and the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center.
