Blues in the Night
September 22 - October 8, 2023
Blues in the Night tells the stories of 3 women and all of the sweet, sexy and sorrowful experiences they have with the lying, cheating snake of a man who wrongs them.
With little spoken text, the interweaving stories are defined through glorious songs that cover the range of this indigenous American art form, from Bessie Smith to Duke Ellington, Johnny Mercer, Harold Arlen, Alberta Hunter, Jimmy Cox, Ida Cox and more, telling of the pain and misery of life and love — and also of the dogged determination to get through it all — that is the essence of the blues.
