As a child, Audra McDonald “was always getting into stuff, … and once nearly set the house on fire” reports Rohan Preston in his piece for the StarTribune yesterday. “’I was a handful,’ she said.”

Be sure to stay for a few minutes after the concert for a complimentary champagne toast and post-concert party to launch the new season!
