Mark Cortale, Producing Artistic Director of The Art House, has announced another spell of late-summer magic that will add lustre to his already glittering tenth anniversary P-Town season. Jessica Vosk, who starred most recently as Elphaba in Wicked on Broadway, will make her Broadway @ The Art House series debut on Monday, August 30th at 7:00 PM, with Seth Rudetsky as pianist and host. Ms. Vosk's Provincetown performance will precede her recently announced and highly anticipated Carnegie Hall debut, with special guest Kristin Chenoweth, set for early November. She replaces the previously scheduled Beth Malone and joins a summer roster that has boasted a "who's who" of Broadway award-winners and music & comedy all-stars, which continues in high-gear now from late August through late September.

Jessica Vosk was the most recent Elphaba in Broadway's Wicked prior to the shut-down. She recently starred in the NYC Ballet Jerome Robbins tribute Something to Dance About, directed by Warren Carlyle, and re-created the role of Fruma Sarah in the recent revival of Broadway's Fiddler on the Roof. Other Broadway: Finding Neverland and The Bridges of Madison County. She starred as Anita in the Grammy-nominated San Francisco Symphony West Side Story. Jessica makes her Art House debut August 30 w/Seth Rudetsky as pianist & host.

The announcement follows on the heels of sold-out Town Hall & Art House shows this month for Broadway superstars Kristin Chenoweth and Kelli O'Hara and Drag Race icon Ginger Minj... and news of Provincetown's nationally recognized leadership for its swift and successful implementation of indoor mask mandates and nation-leading vaccination compliance. This was perhaps best chronicled in a recent full-page August 15, 2021 New York Times Sunday Arts & Leisure feature story which spotlighted Jeffery Roberson, Judy Gold, Judy Kuhn, Seth Rudetsky and Mr. Cortale, in which writer Laura Collins-Hughes summed up the experience of attending a live indoor performance by Ms. Kuhn & Mr. Rudetsky in the Broadway @ The Art House series by exclaiming: "So what if we have to wear masks to be present for something this thrilling? So what?"

While storms and surges do indeed blow, Provincetown is redefining How To Succeed In (The Live Entertainment) Business By Keeping A Cool Head And Following The Science. The result: the celestial stars are shining brighter than ever on P-Town's summer stages:
