“If there is a more complete singing-and-acting talent than Audra McDonald, I can’t think of one. For a generation, she has poured her heart out and done so with such vocal and dramatic authority it is difficult to imagine what we did before she came along.”
— ClevelandClassical.com’s review after her 2023 Blossom performance for a near-capacity crowd.
With a record-breaking six Tonys, two Grammys, and an Emmy, Audra McDonald is unparalleled as both a singer and an actor. She is renowned for her “luminous” soprano voice (with a unique ability to hold audiences spellbound) and her profound gift for dramatic truth-telling. From Broadway favorites to Great American Songbook classics, spend a special Saturday evening with an artist at the absolute pinnacle of her powers.
