July 6, 2022 @ 7:30 am

Glenda’s Baby Productions  is pleased to announce the Birmingham, Alabama premiere of The Rhythm/Da Blues  by E.E. Wade, directed by Andrés Poch and running at Red Mountain Theatre Arts Campus.  The Rhythm/Da Blues is a critically acclaimed solo show by writer and Birmingham native, Erika E. Wade. This rhythmic and energetic show follows a young woman named Lena Darling as she figures out all the joys and pains of growing up Black and woman in The Magic City. Through ups, downs, and a few missed cues, Lena finds her rhythm thanks to the coaching of a village of matriarchs.    The show was first professionally produced Off-Off Broadway in New York, New York at the 13th Street Repertory Theater. When asked why bring the show to Birmingham, Alabama, Wade responded, “ It takes a boldness to play somebody while they are alive. I’m in a place with my performance and my goals in life where I can comfortably bring a show to the city that they deserve.”
