EDGE READ TIME: 3 MIN.

Mark Cortale and The Art House in Provincetown have announced that Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker will join the inaugural Broadway @ Town Hall series featuring Sirius XM radio's Seth Rudetsky as pianist and host for one night only on August 17.

Matthew Broderick is a two-time Tony Award winner for Neil Simon's "Brighton Beach Memoirs" and for "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." Sarah Jessica Parker won four Golden Globe Awards, three SAG Awards and two Emmy Awards as Carrie Bradshaw on the long-running HBO series "Sex and the City."

She reprised her role and served as a producer of the two screen adaptations of the hit series. Broderick and Parker have not appeared together on stage for nearly two decades since the Broadway revival of "How To Succeed..."

Matthew Broderick made his debut at 17 opposite his father James Broderick in "On Valentine's Day," and won an Outer Critic's Circle Award as Best Supporting Actor in Harvey Fierstein's "Torch Song Trilogy." He has also starred on Broadway in the Neil Simon comedies "Biloxi Blues" and "The Odd Couple," as well as the recent hit "Nice Work if You Can Get It" and the record-breaking production of "The Producers" (with frequent co-star Nathan Lane), for which he was nominated for a Tony Award and a Drama Desk Award.

His film career includes the critically acclaimed "You Can Count on Me" with Laura Linney and the Independent Spirit Award winner "Election" with Reese Witherspoon. He has starred in the blockbusters "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," "Glory," "War Games," as the adult voice of Simba in Disney's "The Lion King," and in the films "Tower Heist," "Margaret," "Bee Movie," "Then She Found Me," "Deck the Halls," "The Last Shot," "The Stepford Wives," "Inspector Gadget," "Godzilla," "Addicted to Love," "The Cable Guy," "Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle," "The Night We Never Met," "The Freshman," "Family Business," and "Max Dugan Returns." He will next be seen on screen in director Neil LaBute's "Dirty Weekend" with Alice Eve, and "The Untitled Warren Beatty Project" opposite Warren Beatty, Annette Bening and Lily Collins.

Sarah Jessica Parker's additional films include "I Don't Know How She Does It," "Did You Hear About The Morgans?," "Smart People," "Failure to Launch," "The Family Stone," "State and Main," "Mars Attacks!," "Ed Wood," "The First Wives Club," "Miami Rhapsody," "Honeymoon in Vegas," "Flight of the Navigator," "Footloose," and most recently in "All Roads Lead to Rome." Parker will return to HBO in the comedy "Divorce" as star and executive producer, and serves as executive producer for the AOL Originals documentary series "city.ballet" which showcases the lives of dancers, choreographers, and other artists within the New York City Ballet.

She made her Broadway debut as an 11-year-old in the revival of "The Innocents," and then starred in the title role of the Broadway musical "Annie" in 1979. She has also been seen in leading roles on stage in the Off-Broadway play "Sylvia," and on Broadway with her then future husband Matthew Broderick in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," in the Tony-nominated "Once Upon a Mattress," and most recently starred opposite Blythe Danner in Amanda Peet's playwriting debut, "The Commons of Pensacola" at the Manhattan Theatre Club.

Last year Parker launched the fashion label that is her namesake, SJP, a collection of shoes, handbags and trench coats designed by Parker with George Malkemus III and carried by Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus online and Zappos Couture. She also serves as a Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors for the New York City Ballet, is a UNICEF ambassador, and was elected in 2009 by the Obama administration to be a member of the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities.

Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker join comedian-actress Rosie O'Donnell, Metropolitan Opera legend Deborah Voigt, Tony and Emmy Award-winning star Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka, history-making six-time Tony winner Audra McDonald with special guest Will Swenson and Tony-winner and star of "30 Rock," "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" and "Ally McBeal" Jane Krakowski.

McDonald will perform in Provincetown on the heels of a Tanglewood engagement in July as well as a Williamstown run in Eugene O'Neill's "A Moon For The Misbegotten" with Will Swenson.

Voigt will star in "Voigt Lessons" by Terrence McNally, Francesca Zambello and Deborah Voigt, with music direction by Kevin Stites and directed by Richard Jay-Alexander, for one show only on Sunday August 2 at 6:30 PM.
