SAFFIRE : The Uppity Blues Women - The FAREWELL Tour

“Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts presents SAFFIRE : The Uppity Blues Women - The FAREWELL Tour”

Acclaimed acoustic Blues trio adds Rehoboth Beach concert stop on their FINAL tour after a prestigious 25 year career.



The Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts at 20 Baltimore Avenue in Rehoboth Beach is proud to present the internationally acclaimed, award winning Blues trio SAFFIRE – The Uppity Blues Women on their farewell tour of the United States on Saturday, May 23th beginning at 9:00 PM.

With six albums and hundreds of gigs, this trio of feisty multiracial, middle-aged, acoustic blues femmes (consisting of Ann Rabson, Gaye Adegbalola and Andra Faye) has created a musical legacy with a combination of serious blues songs and comedic novelty songs adored by an immense fan base. SAFFIRE plays original songs and the music of blues women who have inspired them, such as Big Mama Thornton, Ida Cox and Koko Taylor. Their music, both comedic and serious, tends to deal with feminist themes, which has made them very popular outside of traditional blues circles leading them from virtual obscurity to one of the most popular, witty, and just plain satisfying acoustic blues groups on the scene today. Renowned for their ability to tear into their material with passion, dedication, and originality, every song they cover becomes theirs, and their originals blend seamlessly with their unique interpretations.

This is SAFFIRE – The Uppity Blues Women’s final tour. After the end of this American tour, SAFFIRE will disband ending a robust 25 year career sweetened with fond memories and tremendous musical achievements. One lucky audience member will receive a beautiful, full-color SAFFIRE – The Uppity Blues Women The FAREWELL Tour concert poster signed by the trio. Do not miss your last opportunity to witness the blues-infused musical joy that is SAFFIRE – The Uppity Blues Women at the Rehoboth Beach Theater of the Arts.

Tickets for this once-in-a-lifetime event cost $30 and are available by calling The RBTA box office at 302.227.9310 or 302.227.7303. Tickets are also available online at www.rehobothbeachtheatre.com.

Danny and the Juniors

Legendary Rock’n’Roll Pioneers Danny and the Juniors to Perform at the Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts
Famed Doo-Wop originators of “At The Hop” and “Rock ‘n’ Roll is Here to Stay” on the RBTA stage on April 4, 2009.



The Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts is proud to announce the arrival of famed rock ‘n’ roll pioneers Danny and the Juniors to the RBTA stage for two special performances occurring on Saturday, April 4, 2009 at 6:00 PM and 8:30 PM.

These are the original members of Danny and the Juniors who’s super hit “At The Hop” became a monumental hit on five continents reaching #1 on the pop, country and rhythm and blues charts. It stands today as the #23 all-time biggest record according to The Billboard Magazine List Of #1 Hits. The group immediately followed with another hit, “Rock And Roll Is Here To Stay”, which became an anthem of the era, plus dance classics “Twistin' USA” and “Pony Express”. These were the first of a string of eleven charted recordings.

Danny And The Juniors have made almost fifty American Bandstand appearances and have been on numerous television shows -- from the old Patti Page Big Record Show to Nashville Now. More recently, they've also been featured in three motion pictures and their songs heard in many more. Danny And The Juniors have been covered in many important national publications including Life, Billboard, Cashbox and Teen. The latest of these is a recent USA Today article that points out the broad appeal of Danny And The Juniors and their music across many demographic categories.

Now, in their fifth decade as performers, the group still appears at a multitude of venues including conventions, theatres, clubs, casinos, fairs and festivals. Their wholesome, fun-loving stage show is embellished with comedy, impressions, bright costumes and audience participation -- while still preserving the rich history -- and is regarded as one of the best in the business.

Danny and the Juniors will appear at the Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts on Saturday, April 4, 2009 in two separate shows with the first beginning at 6:00 PM followed by a second production at 8:30 PM. Groups of 15 or more purchasing tickets for Danny and the Juniors will receive $5.00 off the admission price and seniors and students will receive 10% off the purchase price.
