Rose "The Real" McCoy

The daughter of a poor Arkansas farmer, Rose Marie McCoy started out performing in Harlem clubs before writing songs for such luminaries as Ike & Tina Turner, Nat King Cole and Elvis Presley. In Rose "The Real" McCoy: A Musical Tribute to a Living Legend of Soul, acclaimed singer/actress Sandra Reaves-Phillips pays tribute to the great rhythm and blues legends of the 1950's and early 60's.

Culled from over twenty hours of interviews, Rose tells the story of one independent, determined songwriter's climb to fame, the legends she met along the way, and features live performances by eighty-seven-year old Ms. McCoy herself!

Shows on Saturday at 730pm and Sunday at 530pm

Tickets only $15
