New York, NY -- (SBWire) -- 04/23/2013 --Megan Mullally, two-time Emmy-winning star of the groundbreaking hit TV series "Will & Grace," appeared in three, rare, sold-out concerts for the acclaimed “Broadway @ The Art House” series in Provincetown, MA this past August. Series host and pianist Seth Rudetsky, the multi-hyphenate Sirius/XM Radio Star-musician-comedian-author whom the New York Times just dubbed “The Mayor of Broadway,” presents these special performances filmed and edited exclusively through Seth TV, his own web-television network. "An Evening With Megan Mullally" premiered as a pay-per-view special on http://www.sethtv.com beginning Monday, April 22.
Megan Mullally is best known for playing the iconic role of Karen Walker on "Will & Grace" for which she won two Emmy Awards, three Screen Actors Guild Awards, and four consecutive Golden Globe Award nominations. She made her Broadway debut as Marty in the 1994 revival of "Grease" with Rosie O'Donnell and next appeared as Rosemary in the hit 1995 revival of "How to Succeed..." opposite Matthew Broderick. In 2007, she starred as Elizabeth in Mel Brooks' original Broadway musical, "Young Frankenstein." She appears on all three cast albums. Megan has also been seen on TV’s "Seinfeld," "Frasier," "Wings," "Ned and Stacey," "Mad About You," "Caroline in the City," "Just Shoot Me!," and "Murder, She Wrote." She hosted her own talk show titled "The Megan Mullally Show," and has hosted "Saturday Night Live," and guest-hosted "The Late Show with David Letterman." Most recently she’s been seen on "30 Rock," "Kathy Griffin: My Life on The D-List," "Campus Ladies," "Parks and Recreation," "Party Down," "Children’s Hospital," "Happy Endings," and "Breaking In." Her film work includes "Anywhere But Here" with Susan Sarandon and Natalie Portman, "About Last Night" with Demi Moore and Rob Lowe, "Speaking of Sex" with James Spader, "Stealing Harvard" with Tom Green and Jason Lee, and the 2009 remake of "Fame."
There may be many among her millions of “Will & Grace” fans who are unaware that Ms. Mullally is also an accomplished Broadway musical-theater star. What perhaps differentiates this TV special from others is the seamless mix of intimate (often hilarious) behind-the-scenes stories from one of TV’s (and Broadway’s) brightest stars – prompted by the encyclopedic-minded Rudetsky’s probing, funny, revealing questions – and her stellar singing of unique repertoire. If there are stories from Megan Mullally’s TV, film & Broadway career that you’ve always wanted to hear her tell, and songs that you’ve always wanted to hear her sing...chances are, that you’ll see and hear them here (and possibly only here) - in "An Evening with Megan Mullally"!
