Orem Utah Scores Four Time Tony Winner Audra McDonald for 110 in the Shade

The Hale Center Theatre Orem will welcome Four-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald who will reprise her Tony-nominated performance as Lizzie Curry in 110 in the Shade in summer 2010. The community theater production, which will run June 28 through August 7, will also star current Tony Award nominee and Hair star Will Swenson, a Utah native, as Bill Starbuck. The two Broadway performers will appear for the first two weeks of the run. They are donating their time to the production, which benefits the nonprofit Hale Center Foundation for the Arts and Education.

McDonald and Swenson appeared together in the Roundabout Theater Company’s Tony-nominated revival of the musical back in 2007, with McDonald starring as Curry and Swenson understudying Starbuck, then played by Steve Kazee.

Audra is quoted as saying:

"I grew up doing community theater, it's very dear to my heart,” McDonald told the local Deseret News of the decision to appear at Hale. “I wouldn't be where I am today without community theater."

Audra, with her amazing "powerhouse" of a voice and award winning acting should truly make the Hale Center Theatre Orem's season.

The Hale Center Theatre Orem is currently run by Swenson's brother Cody and his wife Anne.
