In addition to starring in their respective Stephen Sondheim musicals, a host of performers from the Kennedy Center's Sondheim Celebration will offer concerts at the Center's Millennium Stage in August.

First up is Passion star Judy Kuhn, who will present an evening of song on Aug. 12. Drawing from her recent Lincoln Center concert, Kuhn will include works by Joni Mitchell, Harold Arlen, Tom Waits and Kurt Weill. The acclaimed singer-actress has appeared on Broadway in Rags, Les Misérables, She Loves Me, Chess and King David as well as in the Los Angeles production of Sunset Boulevard. Her recent Off Broadway outings have included runs in Dream True and Eli's Comin', for which she received an Obie Award.

Baron was featured in the Broadway company of Les Miz and Off-Broadway in Annie Warbucks and King Gordogan as well as the Williamstown Theater Festival's production of Stevie Wants to Play the Blues. Baron's screen credits include the film "Pants on Fire" and the TV shows "Guiding Light," "All My Children" and "Law & Order: SVU." She is currently recording her third solo CD.

As previously announced, Passion's Michael Cerveris and his band will present an evening of rock-n-roll tunes on Aug. 18.

He originated the role of architect Thomas Andrews in the Tony-winning musical Titanic and also appeared onstage in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Total Eclipse, Abingdon Square and Life Is a Dream. His film and television credits include the recent Fox series "American Embassy" as well as "Fame," "Equalizer," "Strangers," "Tokyo Pop," "Steel and Lace" and "Rock and Roll High School Forever."
