As part of its 30th anniversary celebration, Massachusetts' Barrington Stage Company will present a concert with three-time Tony honoree Bernadette Peters this summer.
Peters—who is scheduled to return to Broadway later this season in the London hit Old Friends, celebrating the life and work of Stephen Sondheim—will perform August 27 at 8 PM ET on the Boyd-Quinson Stage.
Attendees can expect a mix of songs by Rodgers and Hammerstein, Sondheim, Jerry Herman, and more.
Peters received both Tony and Drama Desk Awards for her performance in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Song and Dance. She earned her second Tony for her work in Annie Get Your Gun. She also received Tony nominations for her performances in Sam Mendes’ critically acclaimed revival of Gypsy, Neil Simon’s The Goodbye Girl, Sondheim’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Sunday in the Park with George, the Jerry Herman-Gower Champion ode to the movies, Mack and Mabel, and the Leonard Bernstein-Comden and Green musical On the Town. She was last on Broadway in a critically acclaimed turn in the title role of Hello, Dolly! Peters is also the recipient of the 2012 Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award.
Peters, who has also garnered a Golden Globe, four Emmy and four Grammy nominations, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, has recorded six solo albums. She also devotes her time and talents to numerous events that benefit Broadway
Cares. Her “pet project,” Broadway Barks, co-founded
with Mary Tyler Moore, is an annual, star-studded dog and cat adoption
event that benefits shelter animals in the tri-state area.
Tickets range from $150–$300 with donor packages also available. Visit BarringtonStageCo.org/Tickets.
