Story
It’s the beginning of eighth grade, and Nat Beacon is nervous. Not only will she be the New Kid, but the New Kid in a Wheelchair. And the school year starts off rocky: No one seems friendly, and she can’t get to the cafeteria without help. But there are a few bright spots. Namely, her best friend, Hudson; her boyfriend (swoon!), Malik; and her very favorite thing: theater. This year, there’s a middleschool theater competition, and any production that wins their regional competition will get the chance to perform—on a real Broadway stage!

The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low.

Brandi Carlile was born into a musically gifted, impoverished family on the outskirts of Seattle and grew up in a constant state of change, moving from house to house, trailer to trailer, 14 times in as many years. Though imperfect in every way, her dysfunctional childhood was as beautiful as it was strange, and as nurturing as it was difficult. At the age of five, Brandi contracted bacterial meningitis, which almost took her life, leaving an indelible mark on her formative years and altering her journey into young adulthood.

An insider biography of the Black Crowes by drummer and cofounder Steve Gorman. In his first-person history of the Black Crowes, Hard To Handle - the first ever account of this great American rock band's beginning, middle, and end - Gorman makes it clear just how impossible that job was. Fortunately, Gorman tells the tale with great insight, candor, and humor. They don't make bands like the Black Crowes anymore: crazy, brilliant, self-destructive, inspiring, and, ultimately, not built to last. But, man, what a ride it was while it lasted.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Cried through most of this, got me in the heart. I will listen again. Heard Ms. Stroker on the cast recording of Oklahoma. Play in the car, warble along with the volume up.

Hmmm…
My personal taste: I don’t like when the musicians are playing so loudly that the singer must belt out their voice, because it makes all the songs sound the same.
I liked getting to know her personal story.

This is not a book…it’s a live singing performance
It is as if they wanted to book Spotify or YouTube but Audible showed up instead. This is a live singing performance with maybe 2% about Ali. Very disappointed - I was hoodwinked by Audible saying this was a book. She is very talented, don’t get me wrong. But it is not a book…it’s a live singing performance that was recorded.

Ali Stroker is a musical gem!
I have always loved Ali, not just because of her voice. Her activism towards handicapped performers has given this group a voice, someone that represents them... And what a work she's done! Being a Tony Award winner is probably just the start of her unstoppable career. Can't wait what she does next! These songs should be available on music platforms (Spotify, Deezer, etc). I'd love to put them in my playlists and listen to them again and again!

Broadway Musicals Are My Favorites
Really enjoyed Ali Stroker’s performance. She has a great voice and can really belt out the music. Quite a few were memorable to me such as one of my old time favorites, “Oklahoma”. The newer songs were good too. I think Ali presented a good variety of music for all listeners. If you like musicals, you’re bound to enjoy listening to An Evening with Ali Stroker.
