LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Katie Holmes is headed back to the stage, this time on Memorial Day for the annual concert in Washington, D.C.

Holmes and actor Gary Sinese are among the stars confirmed for the annual National Memorial Day concert set for Sunday, May 24.

The wife of Tom Cruise and actor Dianne Weist will team up to read one veteran’s personal story. Those readings have been based on veterans’ letters home in past concerts.

Sinese and Joe Mantegna will be host. The concert will include appearances by General Colin Powell, actors Laurence Fishburne, musicians Katharine McPhee and Trace Adkins, and Broadway stars Brian Stokes Mitchell and Colm Wilkinson.

The show will be broadcast live on PBS.
