‘MILES & COLTRANE: BLUE (.)’

An enriching character study and a riveting play, Miles & Coltrane: Blue (.) is also a musical rumination on creativity and its human costs. Quentin Talley’s On Q Productions, which premiered Miles & Coltrane: Blue (.) in Charlotte in 2008, revives the production, which depicts the personal and professional relationship between the two jazz legends — titans whose brilliant collaborations, including the legendary albums Round About Midnight and Kind of Blue, reshaped the boundaries of music and popular culture. This musical biography blends award winning actors, musicians and poets.
