MITTIE AND LALA | APOLLO THEATER

In celebration of the Apollo Theater’s 85th Anniversary, The theater decided to highlight the history and members of the original Girl Groups of the 1950s, 60s, and 70s in celebration of their contributions to American music. They brought together  - Delores “LaLa” Brooks of The Crystals and Mittie Ponder from The Charmettes - to the stage to talk about their experiences as artists and as women in the music industry, and talk about what it was like to perform in the theater and around the country back then.
