SLIPPIN’ THROUGH THE CRACKS: THE BOBBY RUSH MUSICAL Will Come to New Stage Theatre in October
The musical will have its World Premiere from October 20 – November 1, 2026.
Slippin’ Through the Cracks: The Bobby Rush Musical will come to New Stage Theatre as part of its 2026-27 season lineup. The production, by Stephen Helper and Bobby Rush, will have its World Premiere from October 20 – November 1, 2026.
Triple Grammy-winner Bobby Rush has a foot-stomping, uplifting, funky blues story that he wants to tell. From the juke joints of the South to the Grammy stage, Bobby Rush’s life is a story of perseverance, artistry, and soul. This electrifying world premiere musical developed by New Stage Theatre blends live music with storytelling to trace a remarkable journey through American history and the blues.
Slippin’ Through the Cracks encapsulates the message Bobby Rush has for us today: “If a dirt-poor country boy, with no education, no opportunities, faced with great troubles, can make it through life doing what he loves, so can you.”
