Cotton Club Gala directed by Ellen Stewart celebrated the famed Cotton Club. From Andre De Shields to Chuck Green, Ellia English, Aaron Bell, and Sheila Dabney. I was featured as l’il Jasper on harmonica. Ellen directed and Larl Becham was the choreographer. This was just a joy to share this piece of Harlem history.
