Playbill Universe Judy Kuhn and Jenna Russell to Join Seth Rudetsky for London Concerts The actors will join Rudetsky for his popular Broadway @ Leicester Square Theatre series.

Sirius XM host and Playbill correspondent Seth Rudetsky will be joined by four-time Tony Award nominee Judy Kuhn and Olivier Award winner Jenna Russell for two separate London concert appearances on February 3.

Presented as part of the Broadway @ Leicester Square Theatre series, Russell will join Rudetsky at 4 PM, with Kuhn set to appear at 8 PM. While they are not announced to appear together, the actors share the distinction of playing the role of Helen Bechdel in the original New York and London productions, respectively, of the Tony-winning musical Fun Home.

Kuhn created the role in the musical’s 2013 Off-Broadway world premiere, later garnering a Tony nomination for her performance in the 2015 Broadway transfer. Russell originated the role in the U.K. premiere of Fun Home at the Young Vic earlier this fall.
