Member Debbie L. Feldman's monologue "Trumpet Blues" will appear in the Cedar Lane Stage play festival in July. "Trumpet Blues" was performed in the Universal Theatre festival in Provincetown, Massachusetts earlier this year and Feldman performed the monologue in her first one-person show ("Driven") in Manhattan in 2002.
"Trumpet Blues" is set in Jackson, Mississippi in 1959 and tells the story of Betsy McAllister, a white woman who grew up in Mississippi who loved Blues music and later started a record label to record her favorite musicians. Feldman is expanding the monologue into a full-length stage play with live Delta Blues music.
