The Parisian Woman has announced that it will present a final benefit performance for the Actors Fund on March 11 at the Hudson Theatre. Premium ticket buyers will also be invited to a postshow reception with the cast, subject to availability.

The Parisian Woman is written by House of Cards creator Beau Willimon. Uma Thurman makes her Broadway debut in the production under the direction of Tony Award winner Pam MacKinnon. She is joined by Phillipa Soo, Josh Lucas, Tony winner Blair Brown, and Marton Csokas.

The political drama is set in Washington, D.C., after the 2016 election, where Chloe (Thurman), a socialite armed with charm and wit, is coming to terms with politics, her past, her marriage, and an uncertain future. Dark humor and drama collide at this pivotal moment in Chloe's life, and in our nation's, when the truth isn't obvious and stakes couldn't be higher.

The creative team for The Parisian Woman includes Tony winner Derek McLane (scenic design), Tony winner Jane Greenwood (costume design), Tony winner Peter Kaczorowski (lighting design), three-time Drama Desk Award nominee Darrel Maloney (projections), and Broken Chord (sound design and original composition).
