SYNOPSIS:

Using music from great artists such as Bessie Smith, Duke Ellington, Johnny Mercer and Harold Arlen this musical tells of the sweet, sexy and sorrowful experiences three women have with the lying, cheating, snake-of-a-man who wrongs them. The soul of the blues wails out full and strong with songs such as “I Gotta Right To Sing the Blues”, “When a Woman Loves a Man”, and “I’ve Got A Date With A Dream”, that are sure to bring down the house.
