I'm ashamed to admit that it took two friends from Phoenix to introduce us to this hidden gem, which they've been to 8 or 9 times. I highly recommend "Black Pearl: A Tribute to Josephine Baker", which is playing through June 25. Broadway should be so lucky.

Black Pearl: A Josephine Bake Tribute was an outstanding production! I saw it June 1, 2017 with 17 friends from Enjoy Life Chicago! Black Professionals VIP Social Club. The acting, singing, dancing, music, costumes, and video backdrops were excellent. Fascinating story of an incredible woman who broke down many barriers, overcame poverty, abuse and racism and lived an amazing life. Informative and inspiring, this is a Must See! The theater venue is very nice as well. We all had a wonderful time!
