Please bear in mind that Reynolds Auditorium is a historic venue; there is no elevator\, thus the Mezzanine and Balcony levels are only accessed via stairs. Accessible seating is available on the Orchestra level at the rear of the house and along the outside left and right.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStorm Large\n\n\n\nStorm Large: musician\, actor\, playwright\, author\, awesome. She shot to national prominence in 2006 as a finalist on the CBS show Rock Star: Supernova\, where despite having been eliminated in the week before the finale\, Storm built a fan base that follows her around the world to this day. She was seen on the 2021 season of America’s Got Talent. \n\n\n\nStorm spent the 90s singing in clubs throughout San Francisco. Tired of the club scene\, she moved to Portland to pursue a new career as a chef\, but a last-minute cancellation in 2002 at the Portland club “Dante’s” turned into a standing Wednesday night engagement for Storm and her new band\, The Balls. It wasn’t long before Storm had a cult-like following in Portland\, and a renewed singing career that was soon to be launched onto the international stage. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStorm’s 2021 performances on America’s Got Talent — especially this one\, of “I’ve Got You Under My Skin — left Simon\, Heidi\, and Howie floored. Rockstar\, yes … but also searingly intense as a classical artist\, too. You’ll love her in Weill’s The Seven Deadly Sins. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStorm gives a fantastic and fun synopsis of Kurt Weill’s The Seven Deadly Sins in this promo for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra (where WSS music director Michelle Merrill served as associate conductor!) ahead of 2013 concerts in Detroit’s Symphony Hall and on tour in Carnegie Hall. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHudson Shad\n\n\n\nHUDSON SHAD has a thriving relationship with some of the great conductors and symphony orchestras of the world. The Hudson Shad Quartet frequently performs Kurt Weill’s Die Sieben Todsunden (The Seven Deadly Sins). They have appeared with Kurt Masur and the New York Philharmonic\, Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony alongside such distinguished singers as Marianne Faithfull and Julia Migenes in the role of Anna. Hudson Shad’s performance of Weill’s Mahagonny Songspiel with the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra was recorded broadcast on NPR in 1996.  \n\n\n\nHudson Shad was formed in 1992 to revive the artistry of the celebrated vocal ensemble “The Comedian Harmonists”\, who\, in the ’20s and ’30s\, brought to European audiences the sounds of American a capella singing. When Hudson Shad gave their German debut in the summer of 1995\, they were hailed as the first equal heirs to the Comedian Harmonists by national news magazine Der Stern. \n\n\n\nThe group’s repertoire is by no means limited to the Music of the Comedian Harmonists\, however. In their concerts they present American songs of the 20’s\, including the repertoire of The Revelers\, The Mills Brothers\, and The Paul Whiteman Orchestra. Furthermore\, their diversity includes evergreens from the 60’s like “Martha My Dear” and “The Lion Sleeps Tonight\,” as well as gospel songs and Schubert lieder. In January 1997 they were featured artists in Lincoln Center’s bicentennial Schubert celebration with Kurt Masur and the New York Philharmonic. In 1999\, Hudson Shad starred in Band in Berlin at the Helen Hayes Theater on Broadway.
