Andrew Beall (Composer of Song of Solomon) and singer-songwriter ... and whistler, Lauren Elder join Rev. Mary's merry band for Granny's Blue-Mer's new show: "One Hour Mama."
Rev. Mary [Micari] a specialist of dirty blues and vintage songs with a filthy flair is back again to bring you even more raucous, rowdy, bawdy blues, plus early rock and cabaret songs that will have you blushing more than anything out there today! Back-in-the-day, censorship made singers and songwriters work hard to hammer out sexy lyrics but under the cloak of double-entendres & clever turns-of-phrase. Rev. Mary brings these songs back to life with a theatrical flair as she honors the women who wrote them. Prepare for wild time and the hottest history lesson in ... well ... history!
The Granny's Blue-Mers orchestra is now led by celebrated pianist Rachel Kaufman and features Ms. Elder (Hair, Side Show), Mr. Beall (The Lion King, Les Miserables, Spiderman, In The Heights, and A Gentlemen's Guide to Love and Murder,) and Mario Claudio, a member of the final cast of the legendary production of LINE at 13th Street and member of the company of UVX at the Abron's Art Center.
