Pink Martini to Perform January 23 at Mahaffey Theater

December 27, 2017 by Post


CO-LEAD SINGER STORM LARGE TO REPLACE CHINA FORBES

St. Petersburg, Fla. (December 26, 2017) – Pink Martini is scheduled to appear at the Duke Energy Center for the Arts, Mahaffey Theater on January 23, originally with lead singer China Forbes.  China Forbes, however, has recently been diagnosed with a tear of the rotator cuff that requires urgent surgical treatment. A full recovery is expected, but the delicacy of recovery process will prohibit Ms. Forbes from traveling for solo concerts or with Pink Martini until February 2018. Pink Martini’s co-lead singer, Storm Large, will step in to lead the St. Pete performance.

For over twenty years, Pink Martini has toured the world, providing an around-the-world musical adventure singing in 22 languages at opera houses, concert halls, film festivals, museums and fashion shows.  Fans know the musical group that formed in 1994, that was known as a “little orchestra,” mixing many genres including classical, Latin, jazz and classic pop.  In 2014, Pink Martini was inducted into both the Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame and the Oregon Music Hall of Fame.

Tickets: $39.50, $54.50, $69.50. Tickets may be purchased online at themahaffey.com, charge by phone at 727.893.7832 or in person at The Mahaffey Theater Box Office.
