Phenomenal in the truest sense of the word. Tymisha is the kind of performer with palpable star power. Songs are delivered like a hammer to the chest, and in between you are treated to a charming and witty history of black women in music. Don’t miss this. Please don’t miss this.
This was one of my most highly recommended shows of the 2026 “Ottawa” fringe season! Tymisha gave a masterclass on solo performance blending historic with personal commentary with her out of this world musical and dance talent – I was engaged from beginning to end.
So So amazing
