Chicago Theater legend Jackie Taylor highlights ‘Blue Eyed Soul Sung by Brown Eyed People’


Listen Later

A conversation with Chicago Theater legend Jackie Taylor who founded the Black Ensemble Theater 48 years ago. The Black Ensemble Theater, located at 4450 N Clark St., Chicago, is recognized around the world for their productions. Taylor says of all the many shows she’s mounted the current production, Blue Eyed Soul Sung by Brown Eyed People, showing through November 24, is one of her most important. This show includes music which performers like Elvis sang but was first actually performed and written by African Americans and includes music that even Jackie may have thought was performed by African American performers when the singers who made the sings hits were actually white. No matter, the music is great – and that is a part of the point.
