Broderick and Parker to Co-Host Broadway Voices for Change Concert

Broadway couple Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick will host Broadway Voices For Change, a benefit concert starring Tony Award winners Audra McDonald and Barbara Cook, on October 19 at Broadway's Al Hirschfeld Theatre. Proceeds from this one-night-only event will go to America Votes, a coalition with the goal of increasing progressive voter registration and turnout. The concert will feature musical direction by Ted Sperling and Lee Musiker and will be produced by David Binder and Brian Savelson. No word on whether Parker and Broderick, both veterans of Broadway musicals including a co-starring stint in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, will be coaxed into performing themselves.

America Votes is described as the largest grassroots voter mobilization effort in the country today, a coalition of over 40 national groups including labor unions, the Sierra Club, the NAACP, VoteVets and the League of Young Voters. These partnerships represent a combined membership of over 40 million Americans representing a broad economic and social justice agenda.
