Saturday October 21, the composer-singer, experimentalist and award winning actress, Grace McLean will bring her unique sonic visions to our audience. Called “electrifying” by The Huffington Post and “phenomenal” by The New York Times, Grace McLean is a multi-hyphenate actor-singer-writer. In addition to performing in the New York theater scene on Broadway and off, Grace also makes time for her acclaimed original music.
Come hear Ms Mclean’s sonic wizardry, which draws from the tradition of Bobby McFerrin as she multiplies her voice in electronic loops that can turn a singer into a one person chorus and rhythm section.
We are offering a discount on overnight accommodations on Saturday night for concert ticket holders. Just call us to book a room with the discount. Please use promo code "GRACE” when booking a room.

ARTIST BIO
Called “electrifying” by The Huffington Post and “phenomenal” by The New York Times, Grace McLean is a multi-hyphenate actor-singer-writer. In addition to performing in the New York theater scene on Broadway and off, Grace also makes time for her acclaimed original music. Come hear Ms Mclean’s sonic wizardry, which draws from the tradition of Bobby McFerrin as she multiplies her voice in electronic loops that can turn a singer into a one person chorus and rhythm section. Stephen Holden of the New York Times says “Ms. McLean’s voice [is] a flexible instrument with unexpected reserves of power...Behind her playful adventurousness lies a well of passion.”
Grace is a Writer In Residence at Lincoln Center Theater where her first original musical IN THE GREEN was commissioned and produced, received a 2020 Richard Rodgers Award, and a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Musical. She has had two artistic ambassadorships with the US State Department touring Pakistan (2015) and Russia (2018), and her band performed in both the 2015 and 2016 Lincoln Center American Songbook series. Grace is a Broadway Women’s Fund’s Woman to Watch (2021), Jonathan Larson Grant recipient (2021), a member of The Civilians R&D Group (2019-2020), MacDowell Fellow (2018) and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts’ Emerging Artist (2017). Her band has released 2 EPs, “Make Me Breakfast” and “Natural Disaster,” and are looking forward to releasing a full length album in early 2024.
Race Brook Lodge is a hidden gem in The Berkshires, at the foot of Mt. Race and a short hike from the Appalachian trail. The yoga & event barn at Race Brook is simultaneously rustic and sublime, steeped in hundreds of years of New England history. The Stagecoach Tavern is unpretentious fine dining, exquisite farm-to-table cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere. Much of the food is sourced from Race Farm, right on the property!
