?Lady Day at Emerson's Bar & Grill? by Lanie Robertson

In a seedy bar in South Philadelphia, legendary jazz singer Billie Holiday gives one of her last performances before her death in 1959. While indulging her talent as well as her addictions, she recalls her beginnings scrubbing steps in Baltimore through her rise to fame. Featuring more than a dozen songs that made Lady Day an American icon, including "God Bless the Child," "Strange Fruit," "Where Our Love Has Gone," and "Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do." "The richest jazz singing that evokes all the sordidness of a woman entirely shaped by suffering.... By the end ... one is filled with an unexpected joy.... Robertson's play is a spare, shrewdly constructed piece."-N.Y. Times.
