“MIDLIFE…OH THE DRAMA”
March 22 and March 30, 2008
New York, NY, March 22 & 30, 2008 - Singer, actress, and playwright, Jeree Wade performs in her one woman show, “Midlife…Oh the Drama,” that tells the story of a singer in her mid-life- 50s, who let her chance for fame and love slip by because she was not willing to take a risk. Written by Adam Wade, produced by Nobuko Cobi Narita, and directed by Ty Stephens, her show, takes you through a wonderfully funny, poignant, inspirational, and soul-searching journey through the midlife years.
As an accomplished singer, Jeree soars vocally as she presents original material from Branice McKenzie and the legendary Frank Owens, her longtime musical director. Accompanied by a trio of talented musicians, Jeree showcases upbeat and memorable songs including “Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda,” “If Ever,” “Sing Sister Sing,” and “Walk Away.” Moreover, she sings classic standards of the Broadway stage as well as Jazz.
“…Jeree Wade is a performing artist who knows how to hold your attention from the moment she steps center stage. And if you were amongst the capacity audience at the trendy Triad Club…you would know exactly what I am talking about.” - Don Thomas, New York Beacon (2007)
Jeree Wade has gained tremendous recognition in the New York City theatre world as the creator and co-producer, along with Ty Stephens, of the long-running Village Gate musical review “Shades of Harlem.” She has also toured nationally, appearing in Reno, Las Vegas, and Atlantic City, with Bill Cosby, the late Danny Thomas, Alan King, and many other nationally renowned performers. Jeree is married to singer, actor, director Adam Wade now appearing in the touring production of the “Color Purple.”
