Welcome to Jackie's Upper Room
Jackie came to Coffy Town searching for her mother. Instead, she found her best self. \n\n\nNext door to Club Surrender, she transforms an abandoned ballroom into The Upper Room — a space that keeps the lights bright and minds open.\n\n\n\n\nThe Upper Room quickly becomes a hub for Coffy Town’s artists, a place where voices rise and stories unfold. Its upcoming Gospel House Brunch has the whole community buzzing, with performers eager to land a track on Sarah Sarah’s new Coffy House Gospel album.\n\n\n\n\nMore than a venue, The Upper Room is Jackie’s declaration: a stage for truth, resilience, and the music that binds Coffy Town together.

Radio-Theater Serial Edition
About — Storytime with Lady · Season 2: Jackie's Back
Storytime with Lady is a continuing radio-theater serial, unfolding chapter by chapter across seasons, yet crafted so that individual scenes and songs may also be performed as standalone vignettes.
Season 2: Jackie's Back opens with Act I, Scene 1 — “Head in the Bowl”, picking up immediately where Season 1 left off and plunging the audience into Lady's reckoning with the past she tried to bury.
This season is steeped in Gospel House, contemporary cabaret, horrorcore rap, and 70s-inflected funk-fusion, reflecting the rise of Coffy House Records and the evolving soundscape of Coffy Town.
