She’s won acclaim for her legendary stage work, sung background for Madonna in that icon’s heyday and now, with her scintillating appearance on Grotesquerie, she’s finally entered Ryan Murphy’s stable of talented femmes. Naturally, I can only be writing of the divine Lillias White. 

Since the beginning, with her portrayal of Dorothy on the original tour of The Wiz, White has been a force. Proof of this power came with a Tony Award for her performance in The Life and a resume filled with consistent hits has followed that prime acknowledgement in the many years since.

Her versatility is also impeachable. While Glorious McKall, her character in Murphy’s latest horror piece, is definitely of the gun blazingly criminally minded, her first solo recording Get Yourself Some Happy is all about joy, and the tunes featured include one of the songs that (our high priestess) Judy Garland brought to celluloid heights at her home studio, MGM.
