In the middle of a busy city lives Madeleine - an eccentric child who spends all her time drawing and painting. Madeleine begins having peculiar dreams. Night after night her mind fills with visions of blue - a shade of blue so beautiful and so haunting that it propels her on a journey to find that color in the real world. This young artist's quest to find perfection takes her to modern art museums, jazz clubs, arid deserts and distant planets...
Jean-Francois Dumont's story is told through a combination of modern dance (by the artists of the Children's Dance Theatre), original music (composed by Tristan Moore), gorgeous costumes (by Cynthia Turner, Wendy Turner and Nancy Cook), and narration (performed by Tony Larimer).
The show's many moods are brought to life by a diverse band: Mike Bishop (guitar and tenor saxophone), Tristan Moore (bandleader, keyboards, programming), James Morris (guitar, vocals, percussion), Chase O'Neil (vocals), Katherine "K.P." Peterson (violin), Rick "Sneez" Senese (drums), and Natalie Terry (violin and vocals).
