Josephine Baker, a captivating performer, political activist and international icon, who lived from 1906 to 1975, is brought vividly back to life in this startling debut play from Cush Jumbo. From the ragtime rhythms of St Louis and the intoxicating sounds of 1920s Paris, to present-day London, 'Josephine and I' intertwines the story of a modern-day girl with that of one of the greatest, yet largely forgotten, stars of the twentieth century. It premiered at The Bush Theatre, London, on 12 July 2013.
