Wabi Sabi Productions presents J'ai Deux Amours...A Journey with Josephine Baker, a one woman show written and performed by Kimberly Q, at the Producers Club from the 16 - 19 Feb 2006.
J'ai Deux Amours...A Journey with Josephine Baker: Josephine Baker (is believed to be) the only black woman who blended Black and French culture into one. She displayed elaborate costumes, learned to speak French and was considered 'taboo' because of her forbidden, performances that caused many a man and woman the desire to touch, know and embrace her very being.
This one-woman show that takes you on a journey, from Josephine's days of chittin circuit poverty performances, to her exhilarating and energetic success as the woman who would 'dance the sauvage' naked with just a banana skirt in Paris!
The show is directed by Emmitt H Thrower
