In this latest installment of the Sounds of the World Series at The Playhouse, we celebrate Black Music Appreciation Month with the vocal talents of Mark Wright-Ahern in Spirituals, Jazz & Opera. This is a one-hour cabaret-style event. All tickets are general seating and include a drink choice from the bar.
A native of Apopka, Florida, Mark Wright-Ahern is a graduate of Liberty University with degrees in religion and musical performance, as well as a master's degree in business from Nova Southeastern University. Mr. Wright-Ahern has been performing for years on stage, including performances with Opera Orlando (Orlando, FL) and the Roanoke Symphony (Roanoke, VA), and has been featured in many national music recordings. Mark has appeared in numerous television commercials and shared the stage with many of the biggest names in entertainment. He also judges vocal competitions and pageants nationally and throughout his home state of Florida.
"I am very excited to be working in collaboration once again with The Winter Park Playhouse! Mark Wright-Ahern is a seasoned performer and will treat audiences to the origins of various types of music styles as he performs them all masterfully."
