American soprano Claron McFadden will make her Brazil debut on August 12 and 13 at Sesc Belenzinho in São Paulo.
The artist, based in the Netherlands for more than four decades, will portray Nina Simone in the show "Nina". The production by Italian company Fanny & Alexander blends theater, music and technology.
