Songs by Bessie Smith, Duke Ellington, and more - look at that list. I'm not up on my blues, but the singer/actors at the Jubilee brought this show to life. Chelsea Bridgman, Jamall Houston, Natalie King, and Cherish Robinson had fabulous voices full of heart, soul, and guts.
The sets and production are rich, the theater is small, but the voices are big. All I can say is WOW!
Go find a live show to experience. You don't have to pay a fortune to appreciate so much talent.
Sounds like a treat for anyone watcing the show. Loved the review Joanne.

ReplyDeleteRich sound. Stirred the soul
DeleteSounds like a thrill and great when the voices kill

DeleteLove this. The song list looks very fun.
ReplyDeleteSome of this (e.g., Stompin at the Savoy) would've had me dancing.
Glad you enjoyed, Joanne.
Looks like you had a great time in Penn too. All good stuff.
yep - you'd have been dancing. It was like going to church - gospel style. Awesome
DeleteI would love this! Aren't local musicians and productions like this wonderful! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it. Sounds like it was uplifting and inspiring. :)
ReplyDeleteyou would love this theater. I try to get to as many of their musicals as possible.
