Pousse Cafe (repro)

Duke Ellington, Marshall Barer, and Jerome Weidman’s 'Pousse-Café' arrived at the 46th Street Theatre in 1966, completing an accomplished commercial residency of just 3 performances, remaining an absolute foundational Holy Grail document for serious jazz scholars tracking master failures. Masterfully translating Heinrich Mann’s celebrated literature novel and the iconic cinematic film *The Blue Angel* onto the stage, the textually rich drama transposes a dark academic collapse into a thundering swing canvas.
