Featuring Mary Wilson of the Supremes Starring James Gavin, narrator and author of the book Stormy Weather, and Supremes icon Mary Wilson, this multimedia event is a living, breathing biography of the legendary life of the late, great Lena Horne. A combination of storytelling, live performances and rare audio and visual images from James Gavin’s wealth of material and interviews with Horne herself, makes for an unforgettable evening of theatre. Stormy Weather is a salute to Hollywood’s first African-American goddess, from her reign at MGM’s “dream factory” to a fabled night club seductress and civil rights icon.
