The Lady Smith

Andrew Moodie's newest play witnesses a blues singer's brave choice to obey the lesson of her music. Rather than confront her husband when she sees him with another woman, Sylvia follows the woman, and responding to the "room for rent" sign she finds at her apartment, she insinuates herself into the life of the other woman.The Lady Smith is a claustrophobic drama of deceit and redemption set in the black community of Toronto's Bloor and Bathurst neighborhood. From the author of the hit play A Common Man's Guide to Loving Women, this tightly woven drama reaches its finely wrought conclusion with the grace and style of a master dramatist.Andrew Moodie is the author of 'The Lady Smith', published 2000 under ISBN 9781553310020 and ISBN 1553310020.
