Dancing and singing terrific. It was a fast paced show. The only critique we had was the part of the black power scenes. It didn't fit into the show and was a distraction. It took away from the story line and was uncomfortable to watch. The cast was terrific as usual.
Excellent entertainment and messenger of hope. All lives matter �
Black Pearl: A Josephine Bake Tribute was an awesome play! I felt that the actors displayed the spirit of what the writer was trying to convey when it was written and with an intimate stage there are no bad seats. I am glad that I got a chance to see this production, I look forward in seeing more from this theater company.
I love this theatre and all the productions they have. I have been coming for 15 years when they were on Beacon Street and will co time to support. All seating is good even if you're in balcony & valet parking is reasonable.
From 1 who absolutely loves the legacy & life of Josephine Baker, a.k.a. La Baker, Chez Josephine...Go See it! That's all I am going to say!
I saw the Josephine Baker story. The actors and musicians were fabulous!!! I loved the live music!!
Black Pearl, A Tribute to Josephine Baker was absolutely outstanding. This company consistently mounts excellent shows with truly amazing talent. Bravi tutti!
Utterly fabulous. We saw the Tribute to Josephine Baker this evening and wow, this was one of the best musical performances, best dancing, that I've seen in a long time. Brava, bravo to the entire cast crew and especially the two stunning actresses who are Josephine Baker. Merci beaucoup.
