THE sixth Simply Myrna concert takes place March 5 at Formal Gardens, Devon House. It will be held under the distinguished patronage of Sir Kenneth Hall and Lady Hall.
Myrna Hague, founder of the show, will again be the headliner. She gave details of next month’s event during a launch at Hotel Four Seasons recently.
The cast comprises Richie Stephens, vocalist/pianist Harold Davis, and the Carifolk Singers.
Hague said she considered ending Simply Myrna last year but yielded to calls from fans. For the first time, it will be held overseas.

“Me and Mr [Lennon] Crooks [executive producer] were going to quit, but the audience have been clamouring [for the event]. We are in two cities in Florida, Fort Lauderdale and Orlando,” Hague told the Jamaica Observer.The Fort Lauderdale gig is scheduled for April 17. No date has been confirmed for the Orlando show. “It’s just an awesome pleasure and privilege for me. Myrna and myself, we go back a little way,” Davis told the gathering.
The Carifolk Singers
Vonnie Strong, a member of the Carifolk Singers, is looking forward to the show.
“Simply Myrna is a brand by itself, and Myrna has distinguished herself as a performer. The Carifolk Singers are honoured to be a part of this and will continue to support,” said Strong.
