Evynne Hollens’ Contemporary Songbook Project returns with a celebration of musical theatre composer, arranger, pianist, and conductor Jeanine Tesori. The most prolific and honored female theatrical composer in history, Tesori most recently won the Tony for Best Original Score for 2023’s Kimberly Akimbo. Join Evynne and another fabulous cast of local and Broadway talent, as they perform Tesori's most soulful, silly and heart-wrenching music from Broadway's biggest hits, and lesser known gems, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Shrek The Musical, Fun Home, Kimberly Akimbo, Caroline, or Change, Violet and Soft Power.
