This Big Deal is sure to cast a spell on you. Bishop Arts Theatre Center invites you to experience the woman behind the music – Nina Simone. “The Champion,” by New York-based playwright Amy Evans, will run October 11-28 at the Bishop Arts Theatre Center. Inspired by untold, true events in the life of music legend Nina Simone, the story is set in 1962 North Carolina where she and her band are held up by a snowstorm in a greasy spoon. As tempers flare and secrets surface, it seems the waitress at this small-town diner will soon be the only witness to a historic meltdown. Suddenly, the door swings open, and the famous outsiders discover they’re truly in unfriendly territory. “The Champion” is an intimate portrayal of a cultural icon in the turbulent era during which she rose to fame. Enter and win this Big Deal and receive a pair of tickets to see October 14, 3 p.m. performance.
