Olin Fine Arts Center The Core Ensemble, a music theatre troupe, will perform “Ain’t I a Woman” by Kim Hines. The Core Ensemble specializes in Chamber Music Theater, which is often described as a marriage between musical performance and theater narrative. In this type of performance, one actor or actress portrays multiple characters while interacting with an onstage musical trio. “Ain’t I a Woman” celebrates the lives and times of four influential and significant African American Women: ex-slave and abolitionist Sojourner Truth, novelist and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, folk artist Clementine Hunter and civil rights worker Fannie Lou Hamer.
