Looks like the hip-hip/neo soul band The Roots have found a new home in Westchester.

The Capitol Theatre, which will reopen next month in Port Chester, has released its schedule of performers.  The Roots will play at the venue four times in September. But  they aren’t the only  performers who will be taking the stage.

The list includes Hugh Laurie (Yes, Dr. House will be in the house), Ben Folds, Al Green, Lyle Lovett, Fiona Apple, and Indigo Girls. See the list of performers below.

Notice  that the opening night act is missing from the list? We’ll let you know when the first act to take the theater’s renovated stage is revealed.
