Nina Simone: Four Women by Christina Ham

Re-live American history at this meaningful musical

When: MON–SAT, September 21–October 4, check the event for the program
Where: Theater Drachengasse
Entry: varies, check the event page for details

At Theater Drachengasse, the streets of early 1960 America will be brought to you through Nina Simone’s eyes and musicalised by a theatre production of her hit song, ‘Four Women’. The killing of 4 girls that took place in Birmingham, Alabama led Ms. Simone to write a song about the tragic act of racism. Many years later, the playwright, Christina Ham, took the song from the recording studio to the theater stage. To follow the young girls, and to find out how life was after their passing, be sure to get your tickets!
