Hylton Presents

Mandy Gonzalez in Concert

Hylton Performing Arts Center, Merchant Hall

Nov
9

Join Mandy Gonzalez, whose voice “has a potency even the most revered divas would envy” (City Pulse), for an evening of Broadway songs, film scores, and music from her debut album, Fearless. Gonzalez starred on Broadway in Hamilton as Angelica Schuyler, in Wicked as Elphaba, and as Nina Rosario in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s In the Heights. Miranda has called Gonzalez, “one of the greatest singers on earth.” After learning about the social movement #FearlessSquad, started by Gonzalez to empower and positively support others to fulfill their dreams, Miranda wrote her the song, “Fearless.” The song tells the story of how her parents met through serving our country during the Vietnam War and how their courage has motivated her as the proud daughter of a Veteran. With her irresistible positivity and powerhouse vocals, Gonzalez’s debut at the Hylton Center will also honor the Veterans in our community and spark encouragement for anyone in need of inspiration. The Osbourn Park High School Madrigal Singers, conducted by Dominick Izzo, will join Gonzalez for a special guest appearance.

George Mason University’s Veterans and the Arts Initiative is a proud sponsor of this performance, providing free tickets for Veterans and Servicemembers.
