A full-length musical drama where jazz and theatre merge in a tribute to one of
the greatest jazz legends, Billie Holiday.

The time is 1959. The place is Emerson’s bar in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The
audience is about to witness one of Billie Holiday’s last performances. More than
a dozen songs are interlaced with salty, often humorous stories and reflections to
project a riveting portrait of the lady and her music.

STARRING:​
Rosemary Jeffery as Billie Holiday

FEATURING:​
Pianist Attila Fias as Jimmy Powers​
Bassist Joey Smith

Angela Henry – Director​
Kim Greenwood – Music Director
