NINA SIMONE, WILD AS THE WIND

An intense and deeply moving musical journey.

The show

At the crossroads of jazz and theatre, this concert performance pays tribute to an extraordinary artist. Carried by new arrangements of her most iconic songs, it brings together an exceptional musical trio and the unique voice of Tamara Geerts.

After being warmly welcomed at the Royal Festival with the magnificent performance Tina by Théâtre d’un Jour, Tamara Geerts returns with that singular presence that makes both words and music resonate.

Blending live music with immersive storytelling, the performance moves through the major stages of a life where personal destiny and collective history intertwine. The texts give voice to anger, hope and struggle.
