On Sunday's opening night, Wade, as writer and performer, carries his work accomplished from more than two decades into this unique performance The Beautiful Music All Around Us.

Milwaukee Repertory Theater's Stackner Cabaret will resound with American voices in The Beautiful Music All Around Us, featuring Grammy-nominated performer Stephen Wade who has delighted audiences from the White House to Broadway. Fusing a deeply personal story with virtuosic musicianship, Wade lovingly brings to life the music of largely unheralded individuals - domestics, farm laborers, state prisoners, schoolchildren, cowboys, housewives and mothers, loggers and miners - whose music has become part of the wider American musical soundscape. The Beautiful Music All Around Us runs in The Rep's Stackner Cabaret from January 16, 2015 - March 15, 2015 and opens Sunday, January 18.

Yesterday Artistic Director Mark Clements announced Milwaukee Repertory Theater's 2014/15 Season. 'Next season will offer strong stories that are substantive pieces of theater that are both enlightening and entertaining,' said Clements. 'The season includes two exciting world premieres, after all the terrible things I do and Five Presidents. We will also continue the tradition that I started upon my arrival by including a musical on our main stage - the first production in the Quadracci Powerhouse will be the award-winning musical, The Color Purple. Audiences responded so enthusiastically to last year's production of Ragtime, I believe they are in for another treat with The Color Purple.'
