On May 6, join acclaimed jazz and cabaret singer Natalie Douglas for her show, "FOUR WOMEN: Nina, Lena, Abbey and Billie" and listen to her majestic voice as she performs the signature works of legends Nina Simone, Lena Horne, Abbey Lincoln, and Billie Holiday. Douglas celebrates the extraordinary women who changed the face of musical storytelling with songs like Lena's sensational "Stormy Weather," Nina's electrifying "I Put a Spell on You," Abbey's inspirational "Throw It Away," and, of course, Billie's stunning "God Bless The Child."
Gorgeous pipes combined with effortless vocal styling and inspiring song interpretation are the hallmarks of nightclub diva Natalie Douglas, whose recent appearances include Birdland Jazz Club, Carnegie Hall, and Cafe Carlyle. In March 2017, Natalie Douglas was awarded her 8th MAC Award for "Major Recording" for her new album, "Human Heart." This album also was awarded the 2017 Backstage Bistro Award for "Outstanding Recording." Join Douglas, her Musical Director Mark Hartman (Broadway's Avenue Q & Sondheim on Sondheim), and their quintet as they honor these dynamic, iconic, complex, exhilarating, and fiercely talented Four Women.
