PREZ THE LESTER YOUNG STORY
PREZ  THE LESTER YOUNG STORY had its world premiere in Feb. 2016 at Chromolume Theatre in Culver City, where it ran for two months and was hailed by critics and audiences alike. The play, which is set in a 1959 hotel room in Paris, paints an intimate portrait of Lester Young, a unique jazzman whose warm, lyrical style brought him fame, first with the Count Basie band, then with the likes of Nat King Cole, Oscar Peterson, Teddy Wilson, and his best friend and alter ego, Billie Holiday.

Directed by Daniel E. Keough, PREZ  THE LESTER YOUNG STORY, staring Leslie A. Jones. Produced by John Lant and Tamra Pica

The Show runs on Fridays at 8:00PM  Opened February 11th and runs through June 29th, 2018

Playwright Willard Manus has had over 40 plays produced in LA, regionally, and in Europe. Frank and Ava won a best-play award at the 2015 Hollywood Fringe Festival and has been turned into a feature film. Other recent plays include Frank And Ava, Bird Lives!, Berlin Cowboys, and Who Killed Comrade Rabbit (co-written with Ilia Volok). Manus is also a novelist whose best-known book, Mott the Hoople, became the name of the British rock band of the 70s. He is a member of the Actors Studio, Playwrights/Directors unit and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association.  Will also publishes the online literary review, Lively-Arts.com
