AN EVENING WITH Phyllis Hyman, written by Kendrell Bowman and Anthony Wayne and directed by Mr. Bowman, stars Jacqueline B. Arnold (who appeared as Martha Wash in Mighty Real, as well as Priscilla Queen of the Desert on Broadway).

AN EVENING WITH Phyllis Hyman brings to life the untold story of the life, career and music of the singer/songwriter and actress in her own words. With her sultry vocals, Ms. Arnold channels Hyman, taking the audience on an inspirational evening of joy and pain with no regrets.

Phyllis Hyman, born July 6, 1949, is known to the theater community for her acclaimed Broadway performance in the 1981 musical Sophisticated Ladies, which earned her a Theatre World Award and a Tony Award nomination for Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical. From the late 1970s to the early 1990s, she recorded numerous Soul /R&B albums, and some of her singles include "You Know How to Love Me", "Living All Alone" and "Don't Wanna Change the World," and a cover of "Betcha By Golly Wow," among many others. Her film credits include Spike Lee's School Daze. Ms. Hyman, who suffered from bipolar depression, committed suicide by overdose on June 30, 1995.

AN EVENING WITH Phyllis Hyman will be performed at The Actor's Temple Theatre (339 West 47th Street, between 8th and 9th Avenues). Tickets, priced at $79.50 - $89.50-- with a limited number of premium seats priced at $99.50, are now available online at www.PhyllisHymanShow.com.
