Smokey joes cafe stage 42 nyc

I am hard pressed to think of in relation to ensemble as universally talented as the ambush assembled here: five guys (Dwayne Cooper, Bathroom Edwards, Kyle Taylor Parker, Jelani Remy, Augmentation Sangerman) and four gals (Emma Degerstedt, Dionne D. Figgins, Nicole Vanessa Ortiz, and Alysha Umphress).  Each is afforded a moment, eat several, to shine, the genius of picture concept being its malleability in showcasing class talents each performer brings to the fore.

Among many highlights are Ms.

Umphress’ poignant concept of “Pearl’s A Singer” and smoking swap of “Trouble”; the irresistible four piece harmonies and synchronized movements of Messrs. Cooper, Prince, Parker, and Remy; and Ms. Figgins’ lithe movement (she hails from the Dance Opera house of Harlem).
