Nicknamed Lady Day by saxophonist Lester Young, Billie Holiday was one of the greatest jazz voices of all time. The award-winning Lady Day at Emersons Bar & Grill takes place in 1959 at a small Philadelphia club where she takes to the stage for one of the last shows of her accomplished, yet turbulent life. More than a dozen musical numbers, including God Bless the Child and Strange Fruit, are interlaced with salty, often humorous, reminiscences to project a riveting portrait of the lady and her music."Original and riveting." - The London Times"Utterly intoxicating." The Daily Telegraph
