On May 5, an event at Lynn University brings together live performance, personal storytelling, and community in one program. The headliner is Leslie Odom Jr., widely recognized for his role in Hamilton and his work on stage and screen.
He will be joined by Michelle Maros, Barb Schmidt, and emcee Jessi Cruickshank.
What the Evening Includes
The program combines a live musical performance with guided conversation and audience-focused moments designed to keep the experience engaging rather than passive.
Attendees receive:
- A signed copy of Michelle Maros’ debut book Dear Friend
- Full access to the live stage program
- An evening structured around conversation, storytelling, and music
- Complimentary valet parking
The event is built around themes that typically draw a mixed audience—personal growth, relationships, and creative expression—without turning into a lecture format.
Why This Event Stands Out
Events in Boca often fall into clear categories: concerts, talks, or networking gatherings. This one blends all three without overloading the schedule. The presence of Leslie Odom Jr. anchors the evening in performance quality, while the involvement of Peaceful Mind Peaceful Life introduces a more reflective element.
For attendees, that means you’re not choosing between entertainment and something more meaningful—you get both in a single format.
Timing and Context
The May 5 date places the event just ahead of Mother’s Day, which is reflected in the current ticket promotion. A limited-time “Buy One, Bring a Dear Friend” offer is available, positioned as an option for attending with a parent, partner, or friend.
Tickets and Availability
👉Tickets are available online, and the current promotion is time-sensitive.
- Date: May 5, 2026
- Location: Lynn University, Boca Raton
Final Notes
The structure of this event makes it suitable for a wide audience—fans of live music, readers familiar with Dear Friend, or anyone looking for a well-produced evening without a purely commercial feel. The combination of a known performer and a smaller, conversation-driven format is what sets it apart from standard touring shows.
If you’re considering going, availability and promotional pricing are the two variables most likely to change first.
