Lady Day

After an extended run at Weathervane Playhouse, Lady Day, featuring Akron native Marissa Davis as jazz singer Billie Holiday, comes to the Underground at the Holy Trinity Cultural Arts Center for a 10-day run. The play, which also features Cleveland musicians Ed Ridley and Bradford McGhee, runs through March 25. The Underground, the company's theatrical venue, will be transformed into Emerson's Bar and Grill, the place that in 1959 hosted one of Holiday's last performances, just months before her death. Showtimes for Thursday through Saturday night performances are 7:30. Matinee performances are at 3 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets start at $20. (Niesel)
