Austin Artists Project (AAP) in collaboration with Ground Floor Theatre (GFT) present Sing Out!: A Broadway Musical Revue on June 3, 2021. This outdoor concert will bring the talents of six Tony and Grammy Award winners and nominees together in Austin for an evening of Broadway’s most inspiring and life-affirming works. Tickets are on sale now at groundfloortheatre.org/singout.
Created out of a conversation at the 2019 Tony Awards between Beth Malone who originated the role of Alison Bechdel in the musical Fun Home on Broadway and Austin’s own Mela Dailey about representation on stage through musical theatre, concerts, and pride, AAP leapt into motion to design an evening of personal stories and performances reflecting experiences in the LGBTQIA+ community.
“Sing Out! is a 90-minute Broadway musical revue with a twist that Austin will be able to experience and preview before it heads to New York City next summer at Jazz at Lincoln Center,” explains Dailey. “It’s important to hear personal stories and powerful performances by award-winning artists of the LGBTQIA+ community. And well, I think we deserve some fun after this past year of quarantine. We’ll be celebrating our favorite songs from Broadway to pop, safe on an outdoor stage in partnership with Ground Floor Theatre.”
Sing Out! showcases classic Broadway tunes from Rodgers and Hammerstein and Sondheim to newer works from The Color Purple and Hadestown with award-winning performers reimagining these Broadway blockbuster hits and bringing fresh interpretations of proven classics.
