Tony Award winner Idina Menzel has added a fourth date, Thursday, August 18 at 9pm, to her series of concerts at the Provincetown Theater in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Her concerts on August 19, 20, and 21 are sold out.

Menzel won the 2004 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her role as Elphaba in Wicked. She will be seen on the big screen later this year in the film version of Rent, recreating her Tony-nominated role of Maureen. (The original production of Rent brought her together with Taye Diggs, whom she would later marry and who is recreating his role of Benny in the film). Menzel’s other credits include the Broadway musical Aida, the Off-Broadway musical The Wild Party, and the recently completed film Ask the Dust, starring Colin Farrell and Selma Hayek.

Tickets for the concert are $36 in advance, $41 at the door. They can be purchased by calling Ptown Tix at 508-487-9793 or by visiting www.ptowntix.com.
