FROM THE ARTIST:
INTERLUDES: A New (Orleans) Play is a solo show written and performed by Claire Christine Sargenti with original jazz music composed by Darrell Smith and performed by the 8 piece Interludes Jazz Orchestra. Violence, passion, and faith catapult 12 uniquely spirited characters on a unifying journey through the chaos of life (and death) in the City That Care Forgot. Pure, honest, and as heart-warming as it is heart-breaking, Interludes reminds us that what’s worth dying for is also worth living for.
