Sing Sistah Sing! At Edinburgh Fringe 2018
Andrea is thrilled to be bringing her joyous mix of storytelling, jazz, blues, opera and gospel to the Edinburgh Fringe.
The show features songs by African American female trailblazers including: Leontyne Price, Donna Summer, Nina Simone and the great Billie Holiday, with rollicking piano virtuosity from Richard Lewis and Carolyn Sittig as Artistic Director.
Sing Sistah Sing! weaves together these women's struggles in the civil rights movement with their fight for artistic freedom, and at its heart, is what all African American women carry in their souls and voices: the sounds of their ancestors' songs of the plantation.
The show has already garnered high praise, being chosen by The Independent in their "Best alternative hip opera shows to see this summer", "Ones to Watch" in The List magazine and received glowing *****5star reviews from BroadwayBaby and Three Weeks Edinburgh .
The show runs daily at The Assembly Rooms, from Sunday 19th until Sunday 26th August, at 5.55pm.
