Lily Janiak’s theater pick, March 26 The Freight and Salvage has forayed into theater before, but those excursions are rare for the venerable Berkeley music venue, which makes its one-off performance of Pamela Rose’s “Blues Is a Woman” all the more exciting. With an all-woman band that includes Tammy Hall on the piano, “Blues Is a Woman” mixes storytelling with songs of women in the blues through the ages, from Alberta Hunter to Bonnie Raitt, from Ma Rainey to Peggy Lee. Freight & Salvage, 2020 Addison St., Berkeley.
