Call Me from the Grave

by Charlie Romano, Jordan Harris and Christopher Puglisi

Poster Design by Jordan Boudreau

Call Me from the Grave* is an original, all-black, blues musical sensation! A senior project in music, composed by Charlie Romano with a book written by Jordan Harris and Christopher Puglisi, this show is loosely based on the life of songwriter, guitarist, and blues singer, Robert Johnson.

Johnson’s life (and death) have become notorious for the mystery in which they are shrouded. For decades, legend has had it that Johnson sold his soul at a crossroads in rural Mississippi in exchange for his musical ability. Call Me from the Grave explores the lead up to and aftermath of that fateful event, telling the story of a small-town man with a big-time dream. Join us and free your soul!

*This story was inspired by the life of Robert Johnson and has not been approved by his estate.
