WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Sexy and racy, blues singer Bessie Smith was the definition of a Red Hot Mamma and the most successful entertainer of her time. On the eve of her tragic death in 1937, Bessie takes center stage in The Devil's Music: The Life and Blues of Bessie Smith and tells the story of her amazing life and career, her loves and losses. Put your troubles aside and soak up the blues as Bessie Smith comes to life and sings the songs that made her so unforgettable, including "St. Louis Blues," "Need a Little Sugar in My Bowl," and "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out."

RE:Blues Never Sounded So Good!
Loved it! This was a really great show with wonderful music and actress Miche Braden played a steamy, sexy Bessie Smith with a voice just perfect for the blues. My head bopped to the blues songs from the start of the show to the finish. Bessie delivered several great lines throughout the show and there was one particular scene with a saxophone player that was sizzling hot. Who ever knew that the blues could be so good. This show is highly recommended!
