Audra McDonald is unparalleled in the breadth and versatility of her artistry, as both a singer and an actress. Ms. McDonald is the recipient of a record six Tony Awards, the only actor in the history of the American Theatre to be so honored. Also recognized with two Grammy Awards, an Emmy Award, and a long list of other accolades to her name, she is among today's most highly regarded performers. Recently, Ms. McDonald was recognized by the White House with the National Medal of the Arts for her singular achievements on the stage and screen.

Blessed with a luminous soprano and an incomparable gift for dramatic truth telling, the Juilliard graduate is as much at home on Broadway and opera stages as she is on film and television. In addition to her theatrical work, she maintains a high-profile career as a concert and recording artist, regularly appearing on the great stages of the world and with leading international orchestras. Of all her many roles, her favorites are the ones performed out of the public eye: as an advocate for equal rights, LGBTQ causes, and underprivileged youth; and as wife to actor Will Swenson, and mother of her growing family.

CityRep will present Audra McDonald at the Visual and Performing Arts Center Theater on the campus of Oklahoma City Community College, 7777 South May Avenue Oklahoma City, OK 73159 for one night only, April 2nd 2017 at 7pm.
Tickets may be purchased NOW by calling the Oklahoma City Community College Box Office at (405) 682-7579 or click here.
