Josephine Baker Show

With this show, a remarkably authentic production pays tribute to a truly unique artist – stage icon, activist and freedom fighter.

Born in America and a true citizen of the world, Josephine Baker remains an icon and a style-defining role model for generations of artists around the globe. Women’s rights advocate, entrepreneur, trailblazer – these are just some of the many attributes that continue to resonate with her name today.

Above all, however, Josephine Baker was an entertainer like no other. She played a defining role in shaping our modern understanding of entertainment. She loved the stage – and audiences loved her.

It is this love that lies at the heart of the production, brought vividly to life through the exciting and diverse world of variety entertainment.

Josephine is portrayed by none other than Alice Francis!

She is one of the most dazzling voices on the international Electro Swing and Neo-Swing scene. With her unmistakable blend of jazz, swing, Charleston, electro, pop and hip-hop, the charismatic singer creates a fascinating bridge between the Roaring Twenties and the present day.

Hardly any contemporary singer embodies the spirit of Josephine Baker as authentically – and at the same time as modernly – as Alice Francis.

With her extraordinary voice, glamorous stage presence and remarkable stylistic versatility, she brings the elegance and extravagance of the Golden Twenties together with the energy and spirit of today.

Accompanied by a fantastic live band, two dancers and, of course, glamorous costumes, Alice Francis performs the legendary diva’s wonderful international chansons and takes the audience on a musical and artistic journey through the decades – from the Roaring Twenties to the vibrant Seventies.

The show tells, portrays and musically brings to life the story of Josephine Baker – from her very earliest beginnings to her lasting musical influence on today’s Electro Swing.

The performance ranges from Josephine Baker’s great, timeless classics to contemporary pop interpretations, combining music with dance and extraordinary stage artistry to create a captivating tribute to one of the greatest entertainers of all time.
