Josephine: A Musical Cabaret

Before Ella, Tina, Billie or Beyoncé – there was Josephine.

Josephine Baker was the first African American international superstar and one of the most remarkable figures of the 20th century. In this multi-award-winning biographical cabaret that combines music, theatre, burlesque and dance, we follow Baker’s incredible exploits that were groundbreaking for her time, and still incredible a century later.

Tymisha Harris stars in this dazzling retelling of her revolutionary life as a singer, movie star, WWII spy, civil rights activist, and so much more. Written by Tod Kimbo, Tymisha Harris and Michael Marinaccio and Directed by Michael Marinaccio, with additional direction and choreography by So You Think You Can Dance’s Sean Cheesman.
