South Florida Sun Times
Mar 4, 2026
Tony Award Winner Donna McKechnie Celebrates The Greatest Broadway Composer And Lyricist Of Our Time, Stephen Sondheim, In “Take Me To The World: The Songs Of Stephen Sondheim” On Friday, March 6th, 2026 At 8:00 p.m. At The Aventura Arts & Cultural Center As Part Of The 2025/2026 Broadway Concert Series Presented By The City Of Aventura.
The New York Times praises McKechnie, noting that “a mix of high-sheen professionalism and raw vulnerability make an evening with Donna McKechnie quite a singular sensation.” She will perform Sondheim’s iconic music, including “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum,” “Company,” “Follies,” “A Little Night Music” and “Anyone Can Whistle,” as well as songs from some of his film scores. Throughout the evening, McKechnie shares personal stories of working with Sondheim and reflects on the profound professional and personal influence he had on her life.
McKechnie received a Tony Award for her performance as Cassie in “A Chorus Line” and is regarded internationally as one of Broadway's leading ladies having starred in or choreographed productions in London's “West End” as well as major productions in Tokyo and Paris. She recently completed a year-long run as Madame Morrible in the Broadway production of “Wicked.” She received a MAC Award for her first one-woman cabaret show and since then has played all over the country.
