Kick off the 22-23 Season with Broadway legend Jason Robert Brown in Concert. Hailed for his “extraordinary, jubilant theatre music” (Chicago Tribune), Brown is equally skilled as a composer, lyricist, conductor, orchestrator, director, and performer. His theatre work has spanned the generation-defining The Last Five Years, the seminal Parade, (winner of the 1999 Tony Award for Best Score), and the sumptuous The Bridges of Madison County (2014 Tony Awards for Best Score and Orchestration). Brown has also received acclaim for his orchestral work, including a stage adaptation of E.B. White’s novel The Trumpet of the Swan. As a soloist or with his band, he has sold out shows around the world. Among his albums of solo work are How We React and How We Recover and Wearing Someone Else’s Clothes.
