Sheree Sano is billed at Chez Josephine in Midtown Manhattan on November 9. No accompanying performers, set format, repertoire, special guest, release, tribute, or other program details are listed, so the evening is presented simply under Sano’s name. The performance takes place in the venue’s dinner-service setting, where live piano is part of a room built around full-table dining, French bistro fare, and cocktails.
No biographical information about Sheree Sano is provided in the available material. There is no stated hometown, musical background, regular collaborators, recording history, or critical commentary to draw on, and no venue social post adds context for this appearance. What is clear is the setting: Chez Josephine was founded in 1986 by Jean-Claude Baker in homage to Josephine Baker, with portraits and memorabilia of the entertainer surrounding the room. Its Theater Row location makes this an early-evening engagement in a long-running supper-club tradition, with music woven into the activity of the dining room.
Founded in 1986 by Jean-Claude Baker as an homage to his adoptive mother, the legendary entertainer and activist Josephine Baker, this Theater Row piano supper club channels the lavish spirit of 1930s Paris. Beneath a blue-tin ceiling and surrounded by walls lined in crimson velvet, chandeliers illuminate vintage portraits and memorabilia of Baker throughout the room. The sound of live piano accompanies full table dining, featuring French bistro fare alongside a dedicated zinc bar where patrons can stop in for classic cocktails and wine. Rather than a quiet concert hall or ticketed venue, it functions as a social dining room where the music weaves through the buzz of conversation, drawing theatergoers from nearby Broadway houses before curtain and welcoming late-night diners long after the shows let out.
