Written and performed by international award-winning actress and vocalist Ese Brume, this production is a bold and fresh embodiment of the intricacies of Ms Simone as known by her legions of fans across the globe.

Directed by Najite Dede, Brume’s performance is a dense rendering of the many layers of Nina Simone's complex, thorny, and Byzantine life.

The one-woman show is framed with Simone's music (some of which have been adapted with a domestic flavour), against a tapestry of intense and dramatic narratives which has you spellbound for the duration of the one hour show and beyond!

Nina Simone, born Eunice Kathleen Waymon was an American singer, songwriter, pianist, arranger, and activist in the Civil Rights Movement.

Simone employed a broad range of musical styles including classical, jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel, and pop.
