Wishful Thinking
$22 plus $25 food/drink minimum
You might expect that the daughter of an African-American minister father and a lawyer mother would become an activist working at the United Nations. But D’Vorah Bailey had other ideas — show business was her calling! Arriving in New York City with a suitcase full of hope and big Broadway dreams, she soon realizes that dreams have a way of evolving. From the wishful thinking of a young girl to the self-acceptance of the woman she becomes, join D’Vorah as she reflects on life in — and out — of show business, with some of her favorite songs from Broadway and beyond. From Hoagy Carmichael to Alan Menken, Rodgers and Hammerstein to Ahrens and Flaherty, D’Vorah will delight with her lilting soprano and infectious charm.
