Subscription Series: Special Event

Beloved by some of the best-known composers, conductors, and playwrights of our time, charismatic soprano Audra McDonald has distinguished herself as a singer and actress of equal acclaim (Emmy Award-nominated for her performance opposite Emma Thompson in HBO's Wit). Since bursting on the Broadway scene in Nicholas Hytner's 1994 Carousel, McDonald has gone on to win near universal praise for her lush soprano voice, elegant musicianship, and dazzling stage presence and has made music history as the first three-time Tony Award winner under the age of 30. Often hailed as the future of Broadway musical theater, her range stretches from low and bluesy to richly operatic, and her prodigious talents are often compared to the young Barbra Streisand or Judy Garland. When she sings, "you find yourself suspended in that magical zone where time goes out the window and your only reason for being is to listen," says The Washington Post.
