The Core Ensemble continues its busy Black History Month touring with TWO shows on the road simultaneously: “Of Ebony Embers-Vignettes of the Harlem Renaissance” and a new duo version of “Ain’t I a Woman!” for actress and piano. This new version of a perennial favorite is perfect for small venues. Actress Christy Hall loves performing this very intimate show and audiences are LOVING her!

Byron Sean is her supporting artist, bringing his own dramatic flair to some great piano repertoire.

I can’t help bragging by sharing what people are saying about them:

It was such a pleasure having Christy and Byon perform…the duo worked really well for our intimate theatre…Christy was able to connect very directly – it was a wonderful evening! – Jeri Suarez, Associate Dean for Cultural and Community Engagement, Hollins University, VA

It was something you don’t see every day…this was fantastic, with the music, interludes and character changes! – Alva Cellini, Director of Women’s Studies, St. Bonaventure University, NY.

I thought the two performers were fabulous! Lisa Wilson, Office of Inclusive Excellence, Mary Baldwin College, VA

BRAVO!!! – to two amazing artists!
