Before Ella, Tina, Billie, or Beyoncé – there was Josephine! Josephine Baker was the first African-American international superstar and one of the most remarkable figures of the 20th century. In this multi-award-winning biographical musical that combines cabaret, theatre, burlesque, and dance, we follow Baker’s incredible exploits that were groundbreaking for her time and still incredible nearly a century later. Tymisha Harris stars in this dazzling retelling of her revolutionary life as a singer, movie star, WWII spy, civil rights activist, and so much more. Created by Tymisha Harris, Michael Marinaccio, and Tod Kimbro “She should be starring in a movie version directed by Baz Luhrmann.” – RuPaul (about Tymisha Harris) “Probably the closest to an evening with Josephine Baker as one will ever experience.” – Stagebiz NYC “Critic’s Pick! Harris is a magnetic performer, strong singer, and high-powered dancer.” – San Diego Union Tribune “Tymisha Harris’ performance is a tour de force. Josephine is a triumphant homage to a life worth remembering. Go see this one.” – CBC
