"Pavarotti blew a kiss to Lori Brown Mirabal whose mezzo-soprano has a handsome rounded sonority...she sang a diva version of a piece by Bellini and warmed the stage..." - Bernard Holland, New York Times

Throughout her award-winning singing career Lori Brown Mirabal has worked with legendary opera and music theatre luminaries in international opera houses and on Broadway.  In addition to her stage career she was featured in the PBS television documentary Aida’s Brothers and Sisters; and she had a comical cameo debut in the major motion picture The Secret Lives of Dentists.

 

Along with her performing career Mirabal has created an opera production company, Opera Soup Productions, LLC that introduces young audiences to opera in engaging and meaningful ways.  Her first children’s book, “From Soul Singing to Opera Soup,” launches her career as a published author. Her debut children’s recording, Musetta's Musical Story Time; Original Stories with Melodies From Around The World will be available for international release in March 2019.

URBAN STAGES

CHARMED LIFE Lori Brown Mirabal.png

CHARMED LIFE was the last production to perform at Urban Stages before COVID shut theatres down around the country. Directed by Vincent Scott, CHARMED LIFE is a musical journey from Mirabal's hometown of Nashville, to opera stages across the world. She toasts entertainment luminaries, including Oprah, Cab Calloway, and Pavarotti, that had a hand in her rise, and salutes the black opera singers that paved the way. With comedy, storytelling, and show-stopping musical numbers, Mirabal brings you inside the world of opera and, inside her efforts to spread the art form, especially to the next generation. Charmed Life is a feel-good play about opera, being open to opportunities and grabbing hold of the luck that comes your way.

CHARMED LIFE REVIEWS:

“Charmed Life” closed on March 14, 2020 due to the Pandemic. Now, Lori Mirabal is back. Let’s give her a big welcome.  Join us in a COVID safe theater with proof of vaccination, and mask up for an entertaining evening of story and song.”

- Frances Hill, Urban Stages’ Artistic Director
