Lanie Robertson’s Tony Award winning play, "Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill," returns to City Repertory Theatre for six performances Jan. 9-18.
CRT is celebrating its 15th season with a selection of favorites from the past. Laniece Rose Fagundes will once again play the role of Billie Holiday. The production is directed by CRT Artistic Director John Sbordone, with musical direction by Benjamin Beck, who also plays Holiday's piano man, Jimmy Powers.
