From 1938 to 1948, the hottest spot for hip intellectuals to see and be seen was downtown New York's Café Society, one of the first racially integrated nightclub in North America. A pivotal stage for the best-known names in jazz, gospel and comedy, Café Society was a regular haunt for Sarah Vaughan, Lena Horne, Zero Mostel, Josh White, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and Billie Holiday, who often ended her sets with the devastating protest song "Strange Fruit." Versatile pianist Matt Ray leads his Trio, with Danton Boller on bass and Bernice "Boom Boom" Brooks on drums, as the house band for this three-night cabaret tribute to the Café's enduring legacy. Tonight's show features sets from the socially-progressive folk singer Raye Zaragoza and the stand-up comedian, actor, and cohost of the popular podcast Adulting, Jordan Carlos.
Conceived by writer, filmmaker, producer, and multiple Tony Award-winning director George C. Wolfe
