POTSDAM -- Lisa Vroman will perform Sept. 22 at 7:30 p.m. and Sept. 23 at 3 p.m. at Snell Theatre, Crane School of Music as part of the 2018/2019 Community Performance Series.

From Broadway to classics, on stage and in concert, Vroman has established herself as one of America's most versatile voices. She has been regarded as a “musical and theatrical marvel” by The San Francisco Chronicle, as well as “one of American Musical Theater’s most beautiful voices” by acclaimed Broadway producer Sir Cameron Mackintosh.

Among her extensive repertoire, Vroman starred on Broadway, in San Francisco, and Los Angeles as Christine Daaé in "The Phantom of the Opera."

Her many roles include: Rosalinda in Die Fledermaus; both Fantine and Cosette in "Les Miserables;" Rosabella in "The Most Happy Fella" (New York City Opera) as Marion Paroo in "The Music Man" (with Shirley Jones and Patrick Cassidy); Lili Vanessi in "Kiss Me Kate" with the Glimmerglass Opera/St. Louis MUNY; and Anna Leonowens in "The King and I" (Lyric Opera of Virginia).

For PBS she played Johanna in “Sweeney Todd in Concert” (Patti Lupone, George Hearn) and was Christine (Phantom of the Opera) in “Hey, Mr. Producer!” (London Royal Gala).

Ms. Vroman is a regular guest artist with symphonies including San Francisco, Cleveland, Hong Kong, Philadelphia, Seattle, Atlanta, Detroit, as well as Boston Pops (Keith Lockhart), Philly Pops (Peter Nero), and New York Pops (Carnegie Hall).

Tickets are $50, $47 for seniors, faculty and staff, and $21 for students. A special meet-and-greet before each performance, as well as optional cabaret seating on stage, is priced at $100.

Tickets will be available online through the CPS website at cpspotsdam.org, at the CPS box office Monday-Friday from 12:30-4:30 p.m., and at Brick and Mortar Music on Market Street.
