Umbrella will host Laura Benanti in ‘intimate concert’

February 22, 2023

The Umbrella Arts Center presents Tony Award-winner and five-time Tony Award nominee Laura Benanti in an intimate concert performance, two nights only, March 10 and 11 at 7:30 p.m. 

Hailed by The New York Times for her “effortless” vocals, and by the New York Post for her ability to “whip up laughs out of thin air,” Benanti first took Broadway by storm at the age of 18 as Maria in “The Sound of Music,” and has subsequently starred in ten more Broadway shows. 

Her flourishing television and film career have included widely acclaimed appearances on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”and roles on Hulu shows.

In film, Benanti starred in two Netflix movies and is currently filming the Sony Pictures comedy “No Hard Feelings” opposite Jennifer Lawrence and Matthew Broderick. 

She is also a book author and creator of the HBO Max special “Homeschool Musical: Class of 2020” based on her viral social media movement: #sunshinesongs. She released a self-titled audio album for Sony Music Masterworks and tours the world performing solo concerts alongside highly celebrated musicians and orchestras. 

The engagement is an expansion of The Umbrella Concert Series.
