Award Winning Gospel Singer Returns to Wild Adventures

Staff Report

Wednesday, June 8th, 2022

Wild Adventures Theme Park welcomes multiple award winning singer, songwriter, actress, producer and businesswoman Tamela Mann to perform in the 2022 All-Star Concert Series on Saturday, June 11. The concert begins at 8:00 PM and is included in Season Passholder admission or just $10 for General Admission guests.

Over her career, Tamela has earned numerous accolades. In addition to scoring a Grammy®, Tamela is also a BET Music Award winner, Billboard Music Award Winner, NAACP Image® Award Winner, Gospel Music Stellar Award Winner and multiple GMA Dove Award recipient.

After making five albums with Kirk Franklin and his pioneering group, The Family, Tamela began acting and discovered a love for the theater. It was at that time Tyler Perry recruited her and her husband, NAACP Image® Award winning actor David Mann, to appear as the beloved Mr. Brown and Cora in his play, "I Can Do Bad All By Myself." They continued to work with Perry in his plays and such hit films as Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Madea Goes to Jail and 2011’s Madea’s Big Happy Family. She and David also starred in the film and long-running hit TBS comedy, "Meet the Browns."

Completion is a beautiful goal, yet it can be so hard to attain. It’s something most of us wrestle with throughout our lives and Tamela Mann is no exception. It’s a concept that surfaces throughout her new album Overcomer, a compelling collection of songs that takes the listener on the journey Tamela has been traveling the past few years.

“On this album, I’m really putting my life into music, putting my heart and soul into words,” the Grammy® Award-winner shares. “It’s me looking at my life and the things I was dealing with and doing what I can to overcome those things.”

Wild Adventures Gold, Silver, Bronze and Pre-K Season Passholders can enjoy Tamela Mann and all of the concerts in the 2022 All-Star Concert Series for free. General Concert Admission for General Admission guests and Reserved Seats are available for purchase, starting at $5 and are an additional cost to park admission.
