LADY DAY
at Emerson’s Bar & Grill
Book: Lanie Robertson

direction: Jared Shamberger
musical director : LeVar Betts
dramaturge and acting / dialect coach: Tom Flatt

Featuring Anya Randall Nebel as Billie Holiday

?Synopsis: The time is 1959. The place is a seedy bar in Philadelphia - Emerson’s Bar & Grill. The audience is about to witness one of Billie Holiday's last performances, given four months before her death. More than a dozen musical numbers are interlaced with salty, often humorous, reminiscences to project a riveting portrait of the lady and her music.
“The richest jazz singing in town just now is at [this] subtle absorbing dramatic performance”
.... Evokes all the sordidness of a woman entirely shaped by suffering
.... By the end ... one is filled with an unexpected joy!
