Triple Threat

For the Staatsoperette Dresden, the German-language premiere of Stephen Schwartz’s classic “Pippin – Die Kunst des Lebens” is a triumph on every level. Visual opulence, sharply played tragicomedy, a thunderously powerful orchestra, choreography overflowing with highlights, and a vocally formidable cast come together here in perfect symbiosis.

The Muny announced the cast for its premiere production of AIN'T TOO PROUD: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF THE TEMPTATIONS, starring James T. Lane, Nick Rashad Burroughs, Jawan Jackson, Elijah Ahmad Lewis, and Daniel Yearwood.

The 92nd Street Y, New York will present An Evening with Adrienne Warren, a one-night-only event featuring songs from her Tony Award-winning performance as Tina Turner, musical theater favorites, pop covers and storytelling.

I have always been tantalized by the triple threat talent of Vanessa Williams. Ever since I sat with my family and saw her on television singing “Happy Days are Here Again” to become the first Miss America of color, she has become an artistic and cultural presence in my life. At pivotal moments of life experience, her recordings, television appearances, stage appearances, and concerts have become an integral part of my artistic consciousness. As a gay person, I instinctively sensed that she would understand me if she ever met me. Little did I know that she would meet me after a concert and pose for a great picture or that I would be writing this feature story on her well-deserved Signature Theatre Sondheim Award at the Sondheim Award Gala in Washington, DC. (held at The Anthem venue on March 16, 2026).
