The Original Tribute to the Blues Brothers
Featuring original members from London’s West End run, the legendary Original Tribute to the Blues Brothers—the show that started it all—has been selling out all over Europe for years. The last time Jake and Elwood Blues were in the US they smashed, crashed and crooned their way through sell-out shows—no one does it like these brothers and they’re back to show you just why they are the best. This (all new!!!) ‘Original’ show brings all those amazing favorite moments and songs with a few new twists, a few new moves and a clean, freshly laundered suit. The boys are joined by the sassy Bluettes, three amazing ladies with voices to knock you clean off your perch. All your favorite songs are here – of course!!! Everybody, Shake Ya Tail Feather, Sweet Home Chicago, Think, Respect, Gimme Some Loving, and loads, loads more!!! So don the sunglasses, dig out your best pork pie hat, and buff up those dancing shows, because the Blues Brothers cordially request your presence for a night of the best music, the best moves and the best comedy you’re likely to see this side of Chicago. Chapman Music Hall, Tulsa Performing Arts Center. Tickets on Sale Now!
