Delta Blue, a sweeping new American musical currently in development, follows one man’s journey as he wrestles his troubled past and struggles to save everything dear to him. Set in 1944, the story takes us on a compelling trek from the raw, soulful melodies of the Mississippi Delta to the electrifying rhythms of Memphis’ Beale Street and the smoky nightclubs of Chicago.

This is a story of music’s transformative power, the enduring strength of faith, and the courage to reconcile with the past.

The journey of Delta Blue has been absolutely magical. From the first meetings at the Cherry Lane to the residence at Goodspeed, I’ve rarely worked on a project where everyone brings such joy and ego-less good will. Watching this story evolve and resonate as it comes to life is a constant treat.

Trey Ellis

I love that our score really honors the setting and those who lived in it, with blues, gospel, and 1940s style popular song… the current of music that runs through the show makes for an unconventional musical theatre sound. As a composer and lyricist, it’s been really exciting to live in that sonic world.
