Description
Summary:This musical and theatrical show, with a pianist and two superb voices, traces the life of Nina Simone. Lisa Simone moves into the villa where her mother, Nina, died. In a trunk, she discovers her autobiography. Suddenly, someone appears on the doorstep. It's Nina! Tonight, just tonight, they talk their hearts out. Or is it Nina, alone, talking to herself, rehashing her past? Jazz and classical music collide to question filiation, love, racism, illness, the struggle for civil rights and Afro-feminism.
