Keep the kids entertained this half term with Josephine!
Josephine Baker. The little girl from Missouri who became an original 20th Century icon. Dancer, actor, activist, campaigner, spy and mother to the multicultural Rainbow Tribe, Josephine broke the mould and high-kicked the pieces to the kerb.
But almost 50 years after her death, Cafe Josephine, a down-at-heel New York diner dedicated to her memory, faces closure. Nobody remembers Josephine, who she was, what she did, what she stood for. Was it the menu? The decor? Or Jack and Marie, siblings and co-owners of the café who have run her legacy into the ground? Either way, Josephine just can’t allow that.
Suitable for ages 7+
Josephine is playing at Harrogate Library, Victoria Ave on Wednesday 27 OCT 2021 @1pm and 3pm.
