An artists responsibility is to reflect the times. Following the 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church, Nina Simone shifted her talents to activism, creating some of our most powerful Civil Rights anthems. Described as riveting, relevant and oh so real by Broadway World, this deeply personal play with music imagines how the iconic chanteuse forged her true callingand gave voice to countless other Black women fighting to overcome stereotypes and racism. Includes Simones most impactful songs including To Be Young, Gifted and Black, Go Limp and Mississippi Goddam.
