One of MRT audiences’ all-time favorites, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill brings the legendary life and artistry of Billie Holiday to the stage.

The time is 1959. The place is a dimly lit bar in South Philadelphia. The audience is about to witness one of Billie Holiday’s final performances, just four months before her passing.

Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill takes you inside the heart of this unforgettable evening. With iconic songs like Strange Fruit and God Bless the Child, this intimate cabaret experience brings the soul and struggle of one of jazz’s greatest legends to life.

Buy your tickets to The Comedy of Hamlet HERE!

Called a “trio of Modern Marx Brothers” by the Boston Herald and “intellectual vaudeville” by the New York Times, The Reduced Shakespeare Company (RSC) is a touring American comedy troupe that performs fast-paced, seemingly improvisational condensations of huge topics. Join us as they take on Hamlet (the greatest play ever written!) and seek to answer the question - What could possibly go wrong?
