Story
S. Epatha Merkerson ("Law and Order," HBO's Lackawanna Blues, Tony Award-nominee for The Piano Lesson) takes the stage as tough, funny, big-hearted Birdie Blue. Times are tougher than ever, but Birdie welcomes us in, tells it -- and we mean all of it -- like it is, and then does what she has to do in this lyrical and jazzy reflection on love, marriage, and the passage of time from Cheryl L. West (Jar the Floor, Before It Hits Home). Birdie Blue premiered at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in the summer of 2002.
