THE LADIES OF THE COOKERY ARE HAVING A GOOD TIME

There is a new Alberta Hunter in town and Joel was there to greet her. The widely acclaimed Canadian actress and blues songstress, Jackie Richardson, recently stepped into the role of Alberta Hunter in Cookin’ at the Cookery at MetroStage and joins co-star Janice Lorraine in talking about the show and their history of performing it across Canada and the United States.

Joining them is William Knowles on piano as they give us a taste of "Downhearted Blues" and "I’m Having a Good Time". Janice, who plays many roles in the show, gives you an intro to Barney the club manager, young Alberta, Oscar Hammerstein II and her Louis Armstrong that has critics raving.

Get ready for a good time....
