BWW Reviews: Stephen Wade Sings of 'Street Joy' at The Rep's Stackner Cabaret

Photo Flash: First Look at Stephen Wade in THE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC ALL AROUND US, Now Playing at The Rep's Stackner Cabaret

Milwaukee Repertory Theater's Stackner Cabaret will resound with American voices in The Beautiful Music All Around Us, featuring Grammy-nominated performer Stephen Wade who has delighted audiences from the White House to Broadway. Fusing a deeply personal story with virtuosic musicianship, Wade lovingly brings to life the music of largely unheralded individuals - domestics, farm laborers, state prisoners, schoolchildren, cowboys, housewives and mothers, loggers and miners - whose music has become part of the wider American musical soundscape. The Beautiful Music All Around Us runs in The Rep's Stackner Cabaret from January 16, 2015 - March 15, 2015 and opens Sunday, January 18.

PETER AND THE STARCATCHER, Two World Premieres and More Set for Milwaukee Rep's 2014-15 Season

Yesterday Artistic Director Mark Clements announced Milwaukee Repertory Theater's 2014/15 Season. 'Next season will offer strong stories that are substantive pieces of theater that are both enlightening and entertaining,' said Clements. 'The season includes two exciting world premieres, after all the terrible things I do and Five Presidents. We will also continue the tradition that I started upon my arrival by including a musical on our main stage - the first production in the Quadracci Powerhouse will be the award-winning musical, The Color Purple. Audiences responded so enthusiastically to last year's production of Ragtime, I believe they are in for another treat with The Color Purple.'
