About the Show

In the heart of the church basement, the ladies are working — and laughing — their way through another round of potlucks, casseroles, and small-town chaos! With sharp wit, warm hearts, and a deep well of memories, this hilarious slice of community life serves up friendship, faith, and laughter in equal portions. From secret recipes to whispered confessions between folding chairs, Away in the Basement celebrates the unsung heroines who keep the casseroles warm and the spirit vibrant. A comforting and hilarious tribute to tradition, togetherness, and the quirks of church life.
