Directed by Tony Award nominee Lonny Price (110 in the Shade, Sweeney Todd, Company), Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill will officially open April 13. The Broadway production is a limited, 10-week engagement.
The 1959-set play, which centers on one of Holiday's final public
appearances, takes place in Philadelphia four months before the singer's
death. The 90-minute show includes such songs as "God Bless the Child,"
"Strange Fruit," "What a Little Moonlight Can Do," "When a Woman Loves a
Man," "Foolin' Myself," "Don't Explain," "Somebody's On My Mind,"
"Taint Nobody's Bizness," "Baby Doll" and more.
