Singer and actress Gabrielle Lee and music director Robert Lamont explore the relationship between Tin Pan Alley and the New York stage through live performance and storytelling. The evening highlights the contributions of Black composers, lyricists, publishers, and performers between 1890 and 1910, including the rise of Black-owned publishing houses on 28th Street and the Broadway productions that helped establish this music as part of the Great American Songbook. The program is presented in conjunction with the exhibition Act Black: Posters from Black American Stage and Screen, illustrating how sheet music and poster art shaped popular culture in the United States and around the world. Stories of influential women who helped define American show music during this period are also featured.
