Fans of musical theater and the hit television show Glee are in for a one-night-only treat at 8 p.m. Saturday with Idina Menzel in the Arsht Center’s Knight Concert Hall. Menzel, who received the 2004 Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for her portrayal of Elphaba in Wicked, will bring her wide range of talents to Miami, performing songs from various genres, including jazz, pop, and rock. She’ll also sing Broadway hits from Wicked and Rent, as well as songs from her album I Stand.
Well known for her roles in the stage musicals Rent and Wicked, Menzel recently starred in Glee, creating a whole new generation of fans. Just don’t expect a quiet evening — Menzel can belt out notes with the best of them. Just listen to “Defying Gravity” from Wicked. Your ears might hurt a little afterward, but it’s worth it.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
