Birmingham Blues is a dramatic play about a disgraced doctor's fall into the shadow world of the homeless and her journey toward redemption. The play is a gritty, provocative, and darkly humorous look at a community of society's abandoned misfits living beneath a railroad trestle, a familiar sight found in most American cities and towns. Its characters portray the perseverance, courage, generosity, humor, lies and thievery necessary to survive their desperate and often dangerous circumstances. The play was written by Charlotte Higgins whose work has been published and produced in New York and throughout the United States. It is directed by the Sacramento Region's acclaimed Maggie Upton.

Cast: Jody Klemens, CameRon Johnson, Karen Kearney, Vincent Chiesa, Steve Buri and Cynthia Drumbor.
