We are so excited to invite you to an intimate evening celebrating the extraordinary life, music, and legacy of Dolly Parton. I Will Always Love You brings Dolly’s unmistakable songbook to the Sprenger Theater at The Atlas Performing Arts Center for a one-night-only concert honoring an artist whose music, generosity, and unmistakable spirit have touched millions around the world.
Featuring guest vocalists Andrew Keenan-Bolger (Broadway’s Newsies, Tuck Everlasting), Brandon Ratcliff and Suzanne Cox (Grammy Winners, Grand Ole Opry), Sarah Gross (Zach Bryan, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon), and Hilary Morrow (Birdland Jazz Club, The Second City), the evening brings together an incredible group of artists to celebrate the songs and stories that made Dolly Parton an American icon.
From “Jolene” and “9 to 5” to “Coat of Many Colors,” “Islands in the Stream,” and, of course, “I Will Always Love You,” we’ll revisit the songs that made us laugh, broke our hearts, and had us singing along for decades. Along the way, we’ll also explore a few lesser-known gems that showcase the remarkable range of Dolly’s songwriting and the stories behind the music.
This concert is especially meaningful because proceeds from the evening will benefit The American Pops Orchestra’s free national children’s programming. Dolly’s lifelong commitment to young people, including the extraordinary impact of her Imagination Library, has shown what is possible when we invest in children and give them opportunities to learn, dream, and discover. APO is proud to celebrate Dolly’s spirit by helping ensure children across the country can experience the joy and power of the arts at absolutely no cost to them.
Join us for a night of incredible music, unforgettable stories, and a whole lot of Dolly!
