On Monday, September 8, the Broadway at Birdland concert series was pleased to welcome Natalie Douglas back to her musical home. Her concert, Four Women, celebrated the music of Dr. Nina Simone, Lena Horne, Abbey Lincoln and Billie Holiday. Check out photos below!

The seven-time MAC Award, Backstage Bistro Award and Nightlife Award Winner performed the New York premiere of the show that earned her a coveted five star review from The Times (UK), who called her "a true force of nature."

Four Women celebrates the music of Dr. Nina Simone, Lena Horne, Abbey Lincoln and Billie Holiday. Natalie and her Musical Director Mark Hartman, of Broadway''s Avenue Q and Sondheim on Sondheim created an exciting program of songs connected with these dynamic, iconic women - including "Can''t Help Lovin'' That Man," "Throw It Away," "God Bless The Child," and, of course, Dr. Simone''s legendary composition, Four Women. This coming week, Natalie Douglas will premiere yet another brand new concert, "Hello Dolly," celebrating the songs of Dolly Parton. The Broadway at Birdland concert series takes place every Monday night at 7pm. Tickets may be purchased at www.BirdlandJazz.com or 212-581-3080. Birdland is located at 315 West 44 Street in the heart of the Theater District.
