Laura Osnes and Santino Fontana will come together for a concert on Friday, November 2, in the Kennedy Center Jazz Club.

According to a press release, the two Broadway stars — who were both nominated for 2013 Tony Awards for their leading roles in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella — will reunite for "an evening of song pairings, breathing life into beloved Broadway standards matched with their contemporary counterparts. From Rodgers and Hammerstein and Sondheim, to Pasek and Paul and Jason Robert Brown, this exciting young pair oozes charm and undeniable chemistry while dazzling audiences with their versatile talents." They will be accompanied on piano by their Cinderella music director, Andy Einhorn.

Osnes recently completed a starring run in the Tony-winning Bandstand. Fontana will be seen in the new musical Tootsie later this season.
