It\u2019s Theatre Thursday! Today\u2019s show is Blues in the Night, playing at London\u2019s Kiln Theatre in Kilburn until September 7.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

Before we get into specifics about this revue-style show, I need to share two things. First, Husbo & I went to a cheeky weekday matinee so we were ready for the old-white-people chatterboxing that comes with the territory. But the show opens with a single musician in spotlight playing the saxophone, and as soon as he blared out one strong note, an old lady not close to me<\/em> said at full volume \u201coh you know I love the sax\u201d. I mean. We were not ready for that<\/em>. We were in for quite an experience. Old biddies LOVE THEM SOME TALKING.<\/p>\n

The second thing is that whenever I say\/think\/type this title, my head goes \u201cblues is in the niiiii-iii-ii-ii-ight, blues is in the niiiii-iii-ii-ii-ight\u201d like \u201cGroove is in the heart\u201d you get it. Okay I guess I didn\u2019t *need* to share that.<\/p>\n

Blues in the Night<\/em> is a 1980s revue of bluesy standards from well before then (mostly Bessie Smith, like at least half). It \u201ctakes place\u201d in 1938 in a run-down Chicago hotel, and it\u2019s \u201cabout\u201d three down-on-their-luck women \u2013 one older, one middle I guess, and one younger \u2013 and one man. The previous phrases suggesting there\u2019s a story are in quotes because this is a revue, like Ain\u2019t Misbehavin<\/a><\/strong><\/span>,<\/em> that does not have a story. But unlike the enjoyable Ain\u2019t Misbehavin<\/em>, in which they were cool just putting on a killer fun show and accepting that there was no story or characters, Blues<\/em> does attempt to establish characters and a whisper-thin outline of a background story, but that makes it even more obvious that there is none and kind of awkwardly cringey when they do weird \u2018character things\u2019.<\/p>\n

I looked on the wikipedia page for some info and it says Blues<\/em> is actually about these three women and the one \u201csnake of a man\u201d who has screwed them all over. I did NOT get that. The one man, Clive Rowe, seemed more to just be filling a role of \u2018man\u2019 in each song when needed, not that he was actually the<\/em> man involved with these three women. It doesn\u2019t make sense to me that he would have a sexual history with the three of them because, I don\u2019t know how to say this nicely but he doesn\u2019t exactly scream \u2018womanizer\u2019. I think we can chalk him up to being miscast if that\u2019s what they were trying to go for (his singing was fine), along with the youngest woman, Gemma Sutton, who I loved in The Rink<\/em> <\/strong><\/span><\/a>but is wrong here since her character\u2019s songs simply do not fit her voice.<\/p>\n

As for the other half of the cast, they acquit themselves more successfully but are also given weird things to do to establish some semblance of a character instead of just being allowed to sing the damn songs. Debbie Kurup, who we last saw in Sweet Charity<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/a>, plays the middle woman who apparently has a fancy past but is now struggling living in this hotel and sings various songs about her fancy past and current troubles, as they all do. But like, I think at one point she was in the background doing heroin??? I mean, why? There\u2019s no story! That is very unnecessary! And then she sells her fur coat to a waiter? Just why.<\/p>\n

And that brings us to the fourth member of this cast, the great Sharon D. Clarke, probably the greatest West End musical theatre actress right now. The show is worth seeing just to hear her sing a super long depressing version of Bessie Smith\u2019s \u201cWasted Life Blues\u201d, so incredibly moving and fantastic that I could easily have murdered the two old men whose obnoxious ringtones blasted out during it (one even got up from the front to take his call I CANNOT). While Clarke seems to be enjoying herself and is, as always, killing it, they also have her do some ridiculous,unnecessary \u2018character-building\u2019 stuff like singing an entire song with food-based double entendres (does it count as a double entendre if it\u2019s as obvious and unsophisticated as repeatedly joking about a man\u2019s sausage?) and fanning her hoo-ha that it made me uncomfortable to look directly at her. I wish this show was either an actual story or just a straightforward review of good songs instead of being in some weird nether region.<\/p>\n

This show, awkward as it is, was actually nominated for a Tony Award for Best Musical \u2013 but it was a weak year. I mean Cats<\/em> won.<\/p>\n

Although it was pretty slow at times and pretty heavy on the fremdschamen, Blues<\/em> has some good musical moments, namely whenever Clarke gets a non-sausagey solo (that \u201cWasted Life Blues\u201d deserves its own show, with a real story and a real character for her to play, it was that good) and whether the four cast members join together in a number, like in the exciting title song. Fun fact, that song, \u201cBlues in the Night\u201d, was nominated for a Best Original Song Oscar in 1942, along with \u201cChattanooga Choo Choo\u201d. People expected one of those two to win, but Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammy Dos surprised everyone with a win for \u201cThe Last Time I Saw Paris\u201d. Even funner fact, Kern was kinda pissed that he won an Oscar for a song that wasn\u2019t written specifically for the movie it was in so he had the rules changed! He changed the Academy Award rules for original songs (they must be written specifically for the movie) because he was so mad he won one. I mean. That\u2019s more interesting than anything in this show, I hate to say.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

INFORMATION<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Blues in the Night<\/em> is playing at the Kiln Theatre until September 7. It\u2019s a two-act, of 50 minutes each, 20 minute interval. I think there are enough clunkers that could be cut that it could be a one-act 80 minute show if they had the power to change it. Or just have a Sharon concert, really. But it\u2019s worth catching her if you\u2019re a fan before Broadway steals and keeps her.<\/p>\n

AUDIENCE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t even describe how much they were all talking and at full volume. Man alive they love to talk. One guy around us was humming along to the songs and man I get that these are your jams from childhood but the least you could do is hum in the right key.<\/p>\n
