Seventy years after her groundbreaking memoir first stirred post-Civil War America, a preacher discovers a forgotten copy inside a dusty attic during the height of the Harlem Renaissance — revealing a powerful story of survival, artistry, and unyielding resistance. From the violent grip of the Deep South to the refined world of 19th-century Washington fashion — and through the upheaval of the Civil War — LIZZY traces the extraordinary life of Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley, from enslavement to being appointed as the official dressmaker and trusted confidante to First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln, marking her place in history as America's first couturiere. Adapted for the theatrical stage in 2026, this story unveils a legacy of defiance, dignity, and the enduring strength of a woman who stitched a legacy too powerful to be forgotten again.
