About the ProgramFor Academy Award® winner Morgan Freeman, the Mississippi Delta is more than the birthplace of the Blues—it’s home. As a co-founder of the world-renowned Ground Zero Blues Club, Freeman has dedicated his life to preserving the music and stories of this region. Witness a cinematic journey narrated by Freeman on-screen while world-class musicians—carrying the direct legacy of legends like Muddy Waters—perform on stage with a live orchestra. It is a monumental fusion of film, history, and the soul of the Delta.
