Ariana Grande began here illustrious career in 2008 starring in the Broadway production of Jason Robert Brown's musical 13. Her first album peaked atop the Billboard 200 and spawned her first top-ten single. Four albums, four EPs, and more than 40 singles later, she became the first solo artist to hold the top three spots on the Billboard 100 simultaneously. Time named Grande as one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2016 and 2019, and Billboard recognized her as the "Woman of the Year" in 2018.
Broadway Sings Ariana Grande, produced and directed by Corey Mach (Godspell, Wicked), will celebrate the talent and success of this dynamic talent. Previous singers honored in the series include Sara Bareilles, Beyoncé, The Beatles, Rihanna, and most recently Adele.
