BLACK AND BLUE
A Musical Revue in 2 acts conceived by Héctor Orezzoli and
Claudio Segovia.
Minskoff Theatre, Broadway - January 26, 1989 (824 perfs)
Black and Blue is a celebration of a great and marvellous cultural
legacy, the classic African-American tradition of song, dance and music.
It is set in the period between the two World Wars, the period in Paris
where black American artists were given an unusually warm reception. The
show reflects a Parisian affection for the exotic. It also has plenty
of old-fashioned Hollywood razzle-dazzle. It is a homage to all the spirits
of all the legends that created the wonderful period that is Black and
Blue. |
