Broadway in the Hood’s “Orphan Blues: The Gospel Musical,” which played the West Las Vegas Library last weekend, is more of a Christian fellowship than a piece of theater. The approximately 35 cast members were nearly all black, as was the enthusiastic and very vocal audience. But I went because I knew some of the best performers in town can be found at these library shows. And for some baffling reason, it continues to be rare to see blacks not only on local stages but in audiences.
