Here's what you need to know to snag tickets.

Where would I have heard or seen Patti LaBelle?

Patti LaBelle is a singer/songwriter, actress and entrepreneur. Her music has been included on several movie soundtracks, including the 1984 film "Beverly Hills Cop" and the 1989 James Bond film "License to Kill." She has had roles in several TV shows and movies, including the Hulu's version of "The Wonder Years," the Fox hit "Empire" and the 2008 basketball comedy "Semi-Pro."

LaBelle also has published several cookbooks — she even had her own cooking show "Patti LaBelle's Place" on the Cooking Channel. She launched her food and lifestyle brand, Patti's Good Life, in 2007.

On top of all that, LaBelle continued to write and record music, releasing 18 studio albums between 1977 and 2017. Among her hits, 1984's "New Attitude" was on rotation at most dance clubs that year. A year later, a duet with Michael McDonald, "On My Own," became one of the most successful singles for either artist. But LaBelle's most famous song may be "Lady Marmalade," the singer's first hit recorded with her band Labelle before going solo. Its French refrain "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?" caused a stir at the time and the song saw a rebirth when it was recorded by Christina Aguilera, Mya, Pink and Lil' Kim for the 2001 hit movie "Moulin Rouge."
