Shades of Jazz on Noir
Shades of Jazz on Noir combines the passion and despondency of classic film noir with the texture and dynamism of live modern jazz improvisation, resulting in a unique sensory experience for enthusiasts of film, jazz, and new music. The emotional path required to improvise complements film noir’s crude and joyful reality in a unique and little-used way, creating the music of film noir as it could have been. Shades of Jazz on Noir, shows the antagonistic character of film noir, which is the femme fatale. The film’s story arc, voiceover, and musical accompaniment portray film noir’s sultry, treacherous, and iconic leading women.

Come join us on a DETOUR into the underbelly of a once old New York. You, the unsuspecting spectator, will rendezvous with the unexpected. You will bear witness to crimes of passion or perhaps someone's passion for crime. And most importantly, you will realize the need to get the girl -- before she gets you. Bap! Bap!
The air of mystery will tempt you with the sinful sounds of Melinda Smart, devious grooves by Katy Gunn, Brooklyn Strip A Go Go burlesque, and hula hoop goddess Justina Flash -- all centered around an evening of riveting independent NOIR FILMS which will leave you at the edge of your seat. Also featuring your mug shot photo by Larry Red and a free parting gift courtesy of Glacéau.
