ABOUT THE SHOW

In THE SUPER STAR ARTIST SHOW the incomparable Sherry Boone takes the audience on a magical musical crusade of Opera, Pop and Monolouge. Through the eyes of 7 characters, Sherry Boone weaves together song and story like super fine silk. In these hilarious, wishful and touching portraits she tells a story of human desire to reach beyond the mundane world of broken dreams straight for the stars.

Directly from a triumphant London debut in The Royal Festival Hall's Carmen Jones, Sherry Boone brought her new solo sensation The Superstar Artist Show first to The Zipper Factory in November of 2007 and then to the famed Metropolitan Room in April 2008.

With Credits that span Broadway (Jelly’s Last Jam, Ragtime, Marie Christine, Master Class) to Opera (Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival), Sherry Boone has garnered raves for a voice that Ben Brantley describes as "Ravishing".

ABOUT SHERRY

Sherry Boone has taken New York by storm since she first landed in Port Authority in 1991 with $50 dollars in her pocket. With the help of casting director Andrew Zerman, Ms. Boone landed an agent and created an explosive ongoing career as an actress, writer, director, producer, opera singer and humanitarian. She debuted on Broadway in Jelly’s Last Jam starring Gregory Hines and directed by George C. Wolfe. She later starred in Carousel directed by Nicholas Hytner, in Michael John LaChiusa’s Marie Christine, directed by Graciela Daniele, and in First Lady Suite, directed by Jack Cummings III of the critically acclaimed Transport Group. She was directed by the innovative Moises Kaufman in Terrence McNally’s Master Class starring the legendary Rita Moreno as Maria Callas.

In January of 2005, Ms. Boone most recently broke racial barriers as she triumphed as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady, a co production of Portland Center Stage and Dallas Theater Center. Ms. Boone also starred with renowned authors Gish Jen, Walter Mosley, Pulitzer Prize Winner Nilo Cruz and noted violinist Choliang Lin in Stirring The Pot, a tribute to multicultural America for the Asian, Black, and Hispanic Congressional Caucuses in Puerto Rico. In 2006, Ms. Boone wowed audiences on Broadway, again in Terrence McNally’s Master Class –this time starring alongside Dixie Cater, Kathy Bates, Jessica Lange, Edie Falco, Maria Tucci, and Leslie Uggams. That same year, she was handpicked by director Tamilla Woodard for An Evening Honoring Toni Morrison at Lincoln Center. Ms. Boone’s rendition of Morrison and Previn’s Take My Mother Home was given a standing ovation led by President William Jefferson Clinton and Toni Morrison herself.

In July of 2007 Ms Boone’s triumphant London debut in The Royal Festival Hall’s production of Bizet and Hammerstein’s Carmen Jones directed by Jude Kelly garnered the following praise from London reviewer Paul Callan:

“… in so many ways, the evening must go to little Sherry Boone as Cindy Lou. She dominated the stage with her modesty and her genuine love for unfaithful Joe. Her voice is sweet with passion and the aria My Joe was so delicately and sensitively sung it brought the house down.”
