Bursting onto the scene with her star-making performance in "The Color Purple," Cynthia Erivo is swiftly approaching the haloed EGOT status. The classically trained actor — she graduated from the famed Royal Academy of Dramatic Art — with a powerhouse voice already has a Tony, Grammy, and Emmy Award under her belt, and is now seamlessly making the transition from Broadway to the big screen.

Enjoy a soulful evening of song from one of Broadway’s brightest stars. Seamlessly making the transition from the stage to the big screen, British-born Cynthia Erivo won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her performance in "The Color Purple" before starring in several films, including Steve McQueen’s "Widows."

During this momentous time in her career, Erivo brings her rich vocals and radical talent to The Appel Room for a soulful evening of song.

"All of the songs are love songs, whether it be love for another person, love lost, love for yourself, love for the world"
