The Tony-winning singer-actress will perform with the chorus at Benaroya Hall. The holiday concerts, entitled Fruitcake, will be presented Dec. 7-22 with an additional concert Dec. 13 in Tacoma. Holliday will only be part of the Dec. 7-8 performances at 8 PM. Individual tickets go on sale Nov. 3.

A native of Houston, Jennifer Holliday made her professional New York theatre debut in 1980 in the revival of Your Arms Too Short to Box With God. That role led to her Tony-winning performance in Dreamgirls, and her rendition of that show's "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" earned the singer-actress her first Grammy Award. She has also appeared on Broadway in the revivals of Grease! and Chicago, and her television credits include "Ellen," "Touched By an Angel" and a recurring role on "Ally McBeal." Holliday earned another Grammy Award for her recording of Duke Ellington's "Come Sunday."

Tickets will be available by calling (206) 388-1400 or by visiting www.flyinghouse.org.
