The soul of the blues wails out full and strong in BLUES IN THE NIGHT, the scorching, Tony and Olivier Award-nominated musical! The 26 hot and torchy numbers - by icons Bessie Smith, Duke Ellington, Johnny Mercer, Harold Arlen and more - tell of the sweet, sexy and sorrowful experiences that three women have with the lying, cheating, snake of a man, who represents the men who do them wrong. BLUES IN THE NIGHT will begin previews on Wednesday, February 20; will open on Sunday, February 24 at 1:00pm and perform through Sunday, March 10, 2019 at the Laguna Playhouse, 606 Laguna Canyon Drive in Laguna Beach.
