Blues for an Alabama Sky, a poignant drama by Pearl Cleage, is set in Harlem during 1930, following the life of Angel, a jazz singer facing personal and professional turmoil. As she navigates her ambitions and relationships, including a complex bond with the Southern newcomer Leland, the play delves into themes of love, choice, and survival amidst the vibrant backdrop of the Harlem Renaissance. Directed by Brett Ashley Robinson, the production features an ensemble cast including Kash Goins, Taylor Mitchell, and Ebony Pullum, and promises to be a compelling exploration of resilience and the bonds of chosen family.
