Once again, this Saturday, March 28, 2009 at 7:30pm at SIUE, in the Abbot Auditorium, Miss Fannie Belle Lebby will perform her sizzling one woman show “Ladies of the Blues.”

Woodie Award nominee Miss Fannie Belle Lebby’s one woman show, “Ladies of the Blues”, including portrayals of blues artist/jazz singer Alberta Hunter and comedienne Moms Mabley. Fannie Belle Lebby has merged her active performing career with activist work such as Jobs for Justice.

I saw this work performed last April at The Space in St. Louis and mightily enjoyed it.
