The club may be closed, but the party is just heating up! This sizzling revue finds a group of veteran musicians assembled for an after-hours jam session to swap stories and share their favorite tunes, pulled from the greatest hits of Muddy Waters, Ma Rainey, Sophie Tucker, Howlin’ Wolf, Pearl Bailey and more. Featuring nearly two-dozen smokin’ songs and non-stop riffs, these hot rhythms celebrate the bawdier side of the blues and are guaranteed to keep the theatre sultry and steamy from the first note to the last.
Appropriate for adults and teenage audiences. Though the show celebrates the bawdier side of the blues, it’s via the clever use of innuendo and euphemism in the song lyrics versus anything overtly salacious.
