The Ballad Of Jed: Back Home Again Show

The Bull Run Cloggers' 1998-99 show is based on the story of Jed Clampett and his family. It tells the familiar tale of Jed finding oil on his land and suddenly becoming rich.  Jed, Jethro, and Granny load up their old, but reliable, pick-up truck, and head to "Californy".   (Ellie May must have stayed behind to mind her critters!) 

The story follows the Clampetts as they pack up and say "Good-bye," to the folks back home in the hills, travel to the West Coast, and  exercise their hillbilly ways out in Beverly Hills.
 

Granny was played in every single show by Lisa.  

Jethro was originally played by JR (left).  When JR moved out of state, the role was picked up by our sound man, Dale (right).  JR managed to make it to Florida in July to dance with the group at Disneyworld.

Our songs help tell the story.  The following pages are a composite of a year's worth of shows from wherever we've been that folks took pictures:
