Set in London in 1939, Margaret Morrison's new play explores the loving bond between lesbian couple Jimmie and Claire, a white male impersonator and a black pianist, as they prepare to return to the U.S. Though they've lived and performed together as a nightclub act for several years, the looming war and the racial and homophobic hatred they'll undoubtedly face at home threatens to derail their relationship. Margaret Morrison also stars with Ericka L. Hart in this Stage Left Studio production directed by Cheryl King. Learn More

I enjoyed the show for the fine performance done by Cindy. She expressed many emotions, great wit and connected with the audience. The script resonates with real life and makes one feel at home. Great delivery Cindy!
