Mark Cortale, Producing Artistic Director of Provincetown's internationally known Art House theater, has announced that he has begun to search for a new summer location for 2019. Cortale learned last week that the twin 120-seat theaters at The Art House will be gutted by the property owner after the current summer season due to restaurant expansion plans. The news comes on the heels of seven consecutive seasons of remarkable success; thriving outposts of its famed 'Broadway @' music series in major venues across the country and abroad; and the recent announcement of its largest lineup of Broadway, comedy and music stars yet for its P-Town home.

Nancy And Beth (featuring Megan Mullally and Stephanie Hunt) make their Cafe Carlyle debut, May 1-5. The self-described punk-showbiz band has been praised by NPR's All Things Considered as 'musical misfits,' and 'as sharp as any revivalist act going today' by The Los Angeles Times. In a review of their self-titled debut release, Rolling Stone noted 'It wouldn't be fair to call it a purely comedy album - it's too seriously musical and carefully curated for it to be that - but Nancy And Beth wisely doesn't try to disguise the comedic gifts of its creators. Instead, it shows the way Mullally and Hunt can be totally in sync to whip up a unique, coherent vision.' At the Cafe, Megan Mullally (vocals, choreography) and Stephanie Hunt (vocals) will be joined by Datri Bean (keyboards, vocals), Joe Berardi (drums), Petra Haden (strings, vocals), Sophia Johnson (guitar, vocals) and Andrew Pressman (bass, vocals).
