Stolle will perform on Friday, Nov. 1 at 7 p.m. at the Washington Area Performing Arts and Events Center, in the Washington High School at 1111 South Avenue B, Washington, Iowa.

Organizers said Stolle would “showcase a night of Broadway songs, soaring high notes, classic music, vocal versatility and hilarious stories,” adding, “This is a heartfelt performance about life, love, and the perseverance it takes to make it on Broadway.”
