The Albany Theatre

Description

Inspired by the life of Nina Simone, and featuring many of her most iconic songs performed live. Apphia Campbell’s acclaimed play follows a successful singer and civil rights activist as she seeks redemption after the untimely death of her father. She reflects on the journey that took her from a young piano prodigy destined for a life in the service of the church, to a renowned jazz vocalist at the forefront of the Civil Rights Movement. This extensive national tour follows a sell-out UK tour earlier in 2022, and sell-out seasons in Shanghai, New York, Edinburgh, and in the West End of London.

Venue: The Albany Theatre

The Albany is proud of its home at the beautiful Art Deco theatre in the heart of Coventry and the new studio space staging inhouse and professional touring dance, drama, music and comedy productions. From exquisite professional ballet companies to fun-packed tribute acts, local community shows to spectacular OffBroadway hits, The Albany’s two theatres play host to dance, drama, music and comedy events both large and small. The beautiful Art Deco main house theatre is now joined by a brand-new studio space and the new foyer entrance into the spectacular building includes a bar, convivial meeting area and box office with plans to develop the space further to include a café and gallery. The theatre is now a thriving arts venue. Run as a charity by a professional core staff with assistance from a team of volunteers, the Arts for Life initiative has a burgeoning reputation for providing visitors and local communities alike with a flourishing theatre and music scene that promises to make a valued contribution to Coventry’s UK City of Culture status.
