Four-time Tony Award-winner Audra McDonald triumphantly returns to Broadway in the role she was born to play: Lizzie Curry in 110 IN THE SHADE, Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt’s heartrending musical adaptation of N. Richard Nash's classic play The Rainmaker.
Amidst a heat wave in 1930s Texas, Lizzie – despite her wit, intelligence and homemaking skills – is on the verge of becoming an old maid, until a charismatic rainmaker named Starbuck enters town and her world is shaken. 110 IN THE SHADE originally premiered in 1963 – Jones and Schmidt’s first Broadway musical following their unprecedented off-Broadway triumph with The Fantasticks. Joining McDonald for this Roundabout Theatre Company revival are two-time Tony Award-winner John Cullum and, fresh from Spamalot, Steve Kazee as Starbuck.
PS Classics and the Roundabout previously collaborated on Grammy-nominated and top-selling recordings of Nine: The Musical and Assassins; this CD is another definitive Broadway cast album, this time headed by one of Broadway's brightest crown jewels.
