Smoke on the Mountain takes place in 1938 at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina. The play presents a Saturday Night Gospel Sing featuring the Sanders Family in their first night back from the gospel circuit in five years. The audience plays the part of the congregation.

Pastor Oglethorpe, a young and enthusiastic minister, has enlisted the Sanders Family in his efforts to bring his congregation into the "modern world". Opening night jitters combined with the disdain of a pair of spinsters, the church's chief benefactors, keep the evening on the verge of chaos. Between songs, the family members share their witness with the congregation.
