West End & Broadway stars Jenna Russell & Judy Kuhn join Seth Rudetsky in concert at Leicester Square

Olivier Award winner and Tony Award nominee Jenna Russell and four-time Tony nominee Judy Kuhn will join Seth Rudetsky as music director/host for two intimate concerts on Sunday 3 February as part of the long-running Broadway @ Leicester Square Theatre series. Two treats in one day!

Jenna Russell (Sunday In The Park With George, Merrily We Roll Along and Fun Home at the Young Vic) and Judy Kuhn (star of Trevor Nunn’s new Fiddler On The Roof at the Menier Chocolate Factory, Broadway’s Fun Home, Chess and Les Misérables) will join Seth Rudetsky on 3 February 2019. Russell performs at 4pm, while Kuhn appears at 8pm – there is even 20% off all tickets when you buy both shows together!

Broadway @ Leicester Square Theatre began in 2013 with Patti LuPone and returned with Audra McDonald in 2016 and John Barrowman and Ramin Karimloo earlier this year. What differentiates this concert series is the seamless mix of intimate behind-the-scenes stories from Broadway’s biggest stars – prompted by Rudetsky’s probing, funny, revealing questions – and their stellar singing of the musical theatre repertoire.
