This interactive dramatic comedy tells the story of how nine friends survive and continually reinvent themselves as Black Blues people in the mid-1970s. I Was There When The Blues Was Red Hot is a raw and honest look inside their lives through the lens of the proverbial
establishment, race, class, and gender. From a cultural perspective, all constantly re-examine these topics throughout the evening. In search of Equitable Inclusion, long before it became a catchphrase, the characters also debate and eerily predict the future of the Blues in the year 2000.
