Since his passing on December 3rd, 2001, very little has been done to highlight Hubert Smith Sr, an outstanding entertainer who is also the copyrighted composer of Bermuda is Another World. A series of activities, including dinner theatre with a new play, is aiming to change this.

Firstly, on Sunday, September 14th, Gail Palacio hopes to open her memorial to Mr Smith with her second mural on the Angle Street wall. It will be blessed at 1pm, after the morning service at The First Church of God directly opposite, and there will be refreshments and some entertainment.

Taking place at Fourways Inn, the play, Hubert Smith will be performed on September 26th, 27th and 28th, and then on October 2nd, 3rd and 5th, promising to be a great play that educates you on the life of this local legend while you enjoy an excellent meal. The show will last around 40 minutes and the all-star cast will include Gene Steede, June Caisey, Stan “Lord Necktie” Seymour, and Duke Joell, with live band The Masterpiece Trio, who grew up playing many of the standard Calypso tunes of the day and have an extensive repertoire of Jazz to intersperse if needed.

Showtime is at 6pm on Sundays, 7pm on all other days and tickets cost $70 in advance or $80 at the door. The price includes a 3 course set plate dinner and a cash bar will also be available. The dress rehearsal at 6pm on Sunday, September 21st will also serve as a seniors and student matinee. Tickets for this performance cost $50. Tickets are available from Fourways and Music Box.
