Where: Creative Cauldron, 410Â S. Maple Ave., Falls Church
When: Feb. 14 – March 10
Creative Cauldron reprises its 2013 production of this musical fable with the music of three-time Grammy award winner Keb’ Mo’. In a small Alabama town, a mysterious blues guitar-playing stranger named Marvell Thunder arrives at the door of the Dupree family, issuing a challenge for the offspring of the late Jaguar Dupree, the only man who ever outplayed him. Thunder offers Jaguar’s blind daughter, Glory Dupree, a Faustian bargain: If he wins the contest, he gets Jaguar’s guitar; and if she wins, she gets her sight back. Tickets $20-$32.
