Once Upon A Time… Josephine Baker!
About the Show
It is a stormy evening on April 12, 1975. The aged super star, Josephine Baker rests
peacefully amidst glowing reviews of her triumphant comeback performance, a mess of
articles and multiple biographies. A crack of thunder jolts her from her hotel bed and
inspires her to write her ultimate autobiography with the help of her new assistant, Mac.
Mac, a young, aspiring writer seems eager to assist La Baker with this vital,
monumental task of documenting Josephine’s colorful memories from the 1920’s
through 1975. But when Mac begins to probe a little too deeply into what appears to be
the fairytale life of Madame Baker, sparks fly, and much is revealed. Her music will
move you, her story will inspire you.
