Philadelphia's Kimmel Center will welcome three of Broadway’s biggest names in upcoming editions of its new concert series at the Merriam Theater this season. Mark Cortale produces the series.

Sutton Foster, two-time Tony Award winner for Anything Goes and Thoroughly Modern Millie and star of TV Land's Younger, will perform for one concert only on March 3 with Michael Rafter at the piano.

Megan Hilty, star of NBC's Smash and Broadway’s Wicked and the current Broadway production of Noises Off, follows on May 17. And Kelli O’Hara, Tony Award-winning star of The King and I on Broadway, will close the season on June 14. Both Hilty and O’Hara will be joined by Sirius XM Radio's Seth Rudetsky as pianist and host of the series.

This Broadway @ concert series was created in 2011 by producing artistic director Mark Cortale at the Provincetown Art House Theatre featuring Seth Rudetsky as pianist and host. In its fifth season this past summer, the series included Neil Patrick Harris, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick, Audra McDonald, Rosie O’Donnell, Vanessa Williams, and more. The Broadway @ series also premiered in 2013 in New Orleans, in Australia, and in London’s West End.
