The McCoy Rigby Entertainment production continues at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts through November 20, 2022.

The world has changed a lot since 1945, when Carousel opened on Broadway. The Tony Awards hadn’t been established yet. Interracial marriage was not yet legal. Its score speaks of a bygone era when people comported themselves with a certain modesty and societal rules were very different. One would wonder how such a show has survived through the years, but Rodgers and Hammerstein’s second musical has themes that are relevant today. Domestic violence, poor choices, hope, and redemption are all things that society still experiences.
Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill is a play with music written by Lanie Robertson and this production is directed by Wren T. Brown. The musical premiered in 1986 in Atlanta, Georgia and its story recounts some events of Billie Holiday’s life leading up to this performance at Emerson’s four months shy of her death in 1959.
Emerson’s is a small bar in South Philadelphia and the time is a midnight performance by Lady Day. Set to the backdrop of a piano center stage and a few cocktail tables around the space, we relive some events of Ms. Holiday’s life as told through stories found deep in her memory but living on the surface as if they just happened yesterday.
The time is 1959. The place is a seedy bar in Philadelphia. 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 one of the greatest vocalists of all time.
