Urban Stages (Frances Hill, Founding Artistic Director) has announced the spring production of Lori Brown Mirabal's play with music, CHARMED LIFE, From Soul Singing to Opera Star beginning performances on March 1, in advance of its Monday, March 16 opening and will enjoy a limited run through March 29 at Urban Stages Theatre (258 W 30 Street). Tickets are $40 and available by visiting UrbanStages.org or by phone at 1.866.811.4111.

Directed by Vincent Scott, CHARMED LIFE takes you on a musical journey from Mirabal's hometown of Nashville, to opera stages across the world. She toasts entertainment luminaries, including Oprah, Cab Calloway, and Pavarotti, that had a hand in her rise and salutes the black opera singers that paved the way. With comedy, storytelling, and show-stopping musical numbers, Mirabal brings you inside the world of opera and her efforts to spread the art form to the next generation. Charmed Life is a feel-good play about being open to opportunities and grabbing hold of the luck that comes your way.
