"What I've got from her by working on this piece is how deep her soul was. She was a big bundle of love who had very difficult things happen to her, early on in life and then continuously. But her passion for her music and her love for people an life was bigger than any pain that she went through" says Lynne Ann Williams who is playing the Billy Holiday in the play with music "Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill". Because of the determination of Joanna Godwin-Seidl, who acquired the rights to produce this play in Vienna, it can now be seen at Theater Drachengass from 14-19 and 22-26 February.

Hear more about the very moving story of the wonderful Jazz singer Billy Holiday and how deeply Joanna and Lynn have been moved by working on this play.

Joanna and Lynn also gave a shout out to their favourite coffee shops, both in Vienna and Berlin.
