In St. Petersburg on June 18th and in Orlando on the 24th, Jade will star as Lillette Harris in the original production Lillette’s Rhythm Club: Then and Now. In this one-woman spectacle with world class musicians, she’ll tell the story of the little known legend’s life and career with a focus on the club that Lillette and husband Bud Harris founded. In 1945, Lillette’s Rhythm Club was the first Black-owned Nightclub, Casino and Hotel in Reno Sparks, Nevada.
