Don't miss the magnificent #broadway #superstar #audramacdonald in @ladydaywestend the @billie.holiday musical. Spot on #guardian review 'Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill supplies an extraordinary act of embodiment in a routine play. Lanie Robertson’s one-hander captures a night in Philadelphia, when Billie Holiday performed high on booze and drugs, and barely coherent. It invites its audience to watch the singer making art out of falling apart. Christopher Oram’s design encloses Audra McDonald in tawdry glitz: red and gilt; smeary windows through which can be seen the bar’s neon; prissy, tasselled lampshades on tables. McDonald totters on in a white fishtail gown, glugging voddie from a pint glass, staggering around the audience to cadge a light, spitting out foul instances of racism, delivering with casual devastation some of her early history: being raped at the age of 10 was “one of the worst things”. Her performance works from the inside out. Her voice fuels the action. And what a voice. She abandons creamy richness and lets loose an unoiled strangeness. The sound is often unlike something that comes via a larynx, more like the soughing of wind through branches. Abandoned and sophisticated, its catches and wheezings are both skittish and scabrous. Occasionally it seems to be a ladder, allowing the singer to climb out of herself.' #westend #london #theatre #pleaseme https://youtu.be/TZTwdR3C6_E (at Wyndham's Theatre)

Quite possibly the best stage kiss I've ever seen: Audra Macdonald as Olivia and Anne Hathaway as Viola in Twelfth Night

  (Techincally not a Broadway musical, but this was too good not to post...)
