Synopsis: | Juneteenth Legacy Theatre continues to highlight the African American female experience with the Juneteenth Blues Cabaret, a tribute to five very special "Queens of the Blues." In an intimate salon, where spirits both liquid and ethereal flow freely, Cool Dude and Blues Queen welcome their guests for a journey through the lives of Bessie Smith, Ethel Waters, Billie Holliday, Dinah Washington, and Lena Horne -- told through the hardships they faced and the music they made famous. Divas all, these women knew what they wanted, and once they got it, fought to keep it with everything they hadsometimes until literally their last breath. From Ethel Waters's reign as the first Black leading woman in films to Dinah Washington being the first Black singer to have crossover appeal, these women made their mark on a changing world with a legacy that lasts to this day. | |||||
