Lenni Jabour

There once was a young woman who lived on the third floor of a Victorian building downtown.

It had been a very grand and splendid building in its day, but after decades of neglect it had become a sad old tumble of a place. As a gesture to escape the ennui of the lonely life she led, the young woman—surrounded by peeling wallpaper, crooked wood floors and old stained glass—imagined that at night her shabby little third floor apartment magically transformed into a wonderful cabaret, and that her anonymous third floor neighbours were actually friends who comprised her fabulous band. Their boisterousness and joyful playing belied her sadness, lifting her out of reality and firmly esconced in the glad safety of imagination.

And that, darlings, is the true-blue story of Lenni Jabour and The Third Floor.
