Written by Apphia Campbell and inspired by the life of soulstress Nina Simone, this powerful, moving, and thought-provoking show comes to the Gala Theatre on Friday 28th February.
The story follows a successful singer and civil rights activist seeking redemption following the untimely death of her father while reflecting on the journey of her life.
Featuring well-known and beloved songs by Nina Simone, audiences have been awestruck by the show across the world, having received standing ovations in places like Shanghai, New York, Edinburgh, and London’s West End.
It’s probably unsurprising then that this show was the winner of the “Best Theatre Award” at Adelaide Fringe in 2024.
Acclaimed theatre website Broadway Baby described the show as “Nothing short of sensational.”
With themes of racial injustice and violence, Black is the Color of My Voice isn’t afraid to explore dark themes with its audience, but it’s guaranteed to put a spell on you.
Tickets, priced from £22.00 in advance, are available from galadurham.co.uk.
