Out loud and peaceful P V L —"* ? * v -P . .... ■> É * ■X'v J - ; X' lrlem hauteur in Blues for An Alabama Sky Hues is a beautiful shade if lavender ut one queeny gay guy— named Guy, in this case— in a play with four hetero char acters, and he’ll probably steal the show. In ie case of Blues for an Alabam a Sky, Timothy lcCuen Piggee does just that with his portray- |il of Guy, the Harlem costume designer with }ig time dreams. And while he earns plenty of lughs for his preening and posing, Guy also \as at his core a loyalty to his friends that adds flepth and some serious notes to this fine play. Piggee also gets to flaunt one fine wardrobe In this story, set in 1930 as the Harlem Renais sance succumbs to the national depression, ’iggee is terrific as Guy and manages to present lim as a well-rounded character with strong /alues, even if they are at odds with main stream society. Though the first act is mostly filled with romance and lighthearted dreams, the second and final act turns deadly serious as a stranger from Alabama fails to accept the free-wheeling latmosphere in which he finds himself. His I repulsion fuels the dramatic twists at the end of I the play. Blues is playing through March 18 at the I Portland Center for the Performing Arts. For show times and prices, call (503) 274-6588.
