The Sharon®L. Morse
PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
Dear Patron of the Arts,
Welcome to The Sharon® L. Morse Performing Arts Center!
Much like the building’s namesake, my grandmother, Sharon L. Morse, we love all varieties of the performing arts here. It is in her memory that I, along with my amazing team of artists and arts administrators, strive to bring many different types of the highest quality entertainment here to The Sharon.
Since opening in 2015, we have strived to establish your trust, that a show at The Sharon is a show worth seeing. Perhaps you find yourself here today to see a concert of one of your favorite musicians, or to take in the national tour of a Broadway show. Either way, we encourage you to consider trying out a new show that perhaps you haven’t heard of before, knowing that it has been intentionally curated by our team.
We welcome you to The Sharon: a place for you to see an old favorite, but also a place to discover your new favorite. I sincerely hope you enjoy the show today, and I look forward to seeing you here again soon!
See You at The Sharon,
Whitney Morse

BIOGRAPHIES
MARTIN DUBÉ
Martin Dubé built his career on a whim, through impulse and daring gambles. Who would have thought that this Montrealer would sing at the biggest venues on the planet – from Las Vegas’ Caesars Palace to La Scala in Milan, and on cruise ships sailing the world, performing in the most beautiful palaces?
During a show in the United States, he met Saturday Night Live producer Joe Bodolai, who then became his scriptwriter for the English versions of his act. In 1999, he took part in Larry King’s Cardiac Foundation Gala. When he performed at the Bâle Festival in Sweden, the director of the Moulin Rouge in Paris hired him for a series of 67 shows – all in English! “He always wanted to talk to me in English!” Martin Dubé recalls. On some nights, when a more local audience was in attendance, he began impersonating Francis Cabrel and Édith Piaf. As a result, his show became increasingly bilingual. One of his greatest memories was co-hosting the 75th annual Oscar pre-gala with Golden Globe winner and Oscar-nominated actress Kate Hudson.
STEEVE DIAMOND
Steeve Diamond, an accomplished artist from Quebec, Canada, has made his mark as an impressionist, comedian, singer, and creative producer, captivating audiences in Canada, the United States and Europe.
Revealing his talent at the Just for Laughs Festival in 1992, Steeve Diamond presented his first one-man show in 1998, earning nominations at the 1999 ADISQ Gala. In 2001, he created the popular show Les 3 Ténors de l’Humour. His second one-man show, presented in 2005 to thousands of spectators, preceded a five-year European tour titled 4 Sans Voix.
Beyond his status as an artist, Steeve Diamond ventured into show production, bringing projects like Bocelli & Friends and Diamond of Rock to life, showcasing his artistic versatility.
Gifted with charisma and immense talent, Steeve Diamond is preparing his return to Europe with Les 4 Sans Voix, promising an exciting year ahead. As a versatile artist and visionary producer, he remains a key figure in the entertainment industry, constantly pushing the boundaries of musical creativity and leaving his distinctive mark on every project.
