The audience wasn’t applauding the
spirit of Nina Simone, the incandescent soul singer and Black Power icon, who
was one of the most influential, provocative and least understood artists of the
twentieth century. The audience wasn’t applauding this production
of this show either, for there is little in the way of staging to facilitate the
storytelling. No, the audience was applauding the
performers.

If you like the sounds and music of Nina Simone,
enjoy well played, sung and performed jazz, gospel, blues, folk, R&B, and
pop music, and want to know more about the Diva of Jazz, Karamu’s “Simply
Simone” should be your entertainment destination.
Christine Howey
Most
of what made Nina Simone so different and wonderful is simply missing from Simply Simone.
