The Brownville Concert Series will present Stacy Sullivan in “Tornado Alley.” Sullivan, recording artist, film, television and stage actress, grew up in Oklahoma, with its wide-open spaces and harsh extremes of climate. “Tornado Alley” has been described by the New York Times as a musical weather report about American life through stormy weather, with the knowledge that anything can happen at any moment. The shows will be in cabaret on Friday and Saturday, June 12 and 13, at 7:30 p.m. and in concert Sunday, June 14, at 2:00 p.m. Sponsors are Victoria and John Ackerman, Kay Rosenbohm, and Jane Rohman.

An award-winning vocalist, Stacy Sullivan has appeared in venues around the world, from The Crazy Coqs in London to The Cafe Carlyle in New York and the Cinegrill in Hollywood. Her six albums include her latest, “Stranger in a Dream” (Harbinger Records), and “It’s a Good Day: A Tribute to Miss Peggy Lee” (LML Music). She can be heard regularly on The Jonathon Channel, Seriously Sinatra, and radio stations across the country.

She appeared in numerous film, commercial, and television projects in Hollywood, (memorably creating the role of Sissel Jorgensen on the award-winning series, “Christy,” starring Tyne Daly) but career took a backseat to children for many years, leading her to keep the musical drive alive by recording five critically acclaimed albums.

With a move to New York in 2012, career dreams took flight in the creation of “It’s a Good Day – A Tribute to Miss Peggy Lee,” the live show and recording that would change her life. Stephen Holden of The New York Times has referred to her performances as “spellbinding,” darkly sultry,” and “compelling.” Clive Davis of The Times (London) wrote, “A commanding, willowy presence, Sullivan captures that rare combination of vulnerability and worldliness.”

“On the Air,” the show she wrote and performs for Piano Jazz creator, Marian McPartland, caught the eye (and ear) of legendary radio personality and music connoisseur Jonathan Schwartz, who presented it to New York City at WNYC’s “The Greene Space,” which led to a run at The York Theatre in Manhattan and the recording “Stranger in a Dream.” The Wall Street Journal called it “Cabaret for Thinking People” and The New York Times raved, “Sullivan transports you to a twilight zone of wistful reflection that recalls the dreamier side of Peggy Lee.”

Her numerous awards include Nightlife, Broadway World, Backstage Bistro, and Five-Time MAC Award winner.
