Audra McDonald returns to Berkeley with the luminous voice and dramatic storytelling that have made her a singular presence on Broadway, television, and the concert stage. A record-setting six-time Tony Award winner as well as an Emmy and two-time Grammy recipient, McDonald brings theatrical precision and emotional immediacy to every style she performs.

The concert draws on her signature repertoire from Broadway, the Great American Songbook, and beyond. Following her acclaimed transformation as Mama Rose in the recent revival of Gypsy, the evening offers a concert-hall view of an artist equally at home inhabiting a character and communicating directly through song.
