More names have been added to the list of performers taking part in Broadway Musicals of 1978, the next offering in Scott Siegel's acclaimed Broadway By the Year series.

Recent Lestat star Carolee Carmello, original Hairspray cast member Mary Bond Davis and former Ring of Fire singer Lari White are the newest additions to the June 19 concert at Town Hall, which will feature songs from shows that debuted on Broadway in 1978. Carmello, Davis and White join the previously announced Chuck Cooper, Felicia Finley, Julie Garnyé, Nancy Opel, Noah Racey, Christine Pedi, Lennie Watts and Bryan Batt. Batt will also direct the 8 PM evening.

Concertgoers can expect to hear tunes from Working, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and On the Twentieth Century and watch dance numbers from Bob Fosse's Dancin'.

Town Hall is located in Manhattan at 123 West 23rd Street. Tickets, priced $40 and $45, are available by calling (212) 307-4100 or (212) 840-2824.
