THRILLIFYING NEWS: For the first time in 14 YEARS, Tony and Emmy Award winner Kristin Chenoweth will return to The Metropolitan Opera just in time for the holiday season. The 4’11 favorite is set to take the stage at the legendary venue on December 13th, 2021 with a brand new ONE NIGHT ONLY solo show
CHRISTMAS AT THE MET. It comes in support of her brand new holiday album HAPPINESS IS….. CHRISTMAS which came out last month from Concord Records.
This new program will reunite Chenoweth with her beloved longtime concert team consisting of THE BROADWAY MAN himself Richard Jay-Alexander directing and Mary-Mitchell Campbell serving as Musical Director. The duo have done various of Chenoweth’s ongoing concerts together around the world including her 2 limited Broadway concert residencies 2016’s MY LOVE LETTER TO BROADWAY and 2019’s FOR THE GIRLS.
In this new holiday concert, fans can expect the 4’11 favorite to perform mainly a selection of notable holiday favorites on both the new HAPPINESS IS…. CHRISTMAS album along with 2008’s A LOVELY WAY TO SPEND CHRISTMAS. You can also expect some of her notable tunes including hits from WICKED, her previous solo albums, Opera surprises, and more.
Chenoweth returns to The Met following her previous triumphant solo concert there back in 2007. That concert was previously directed and choreographed by Tony winner Kathleen Marshall along with Musical Direction by Andrew Lippa accompanying a 13 piece orchestra. She also shared the stage with the Julliard Choral Union (under the direction Judith Clurman). That setlist featured a lineup of Broadway favorites, Opera, and even a little Country. Chenoweth is only the 2nd Musical Theatre star EVER to have given a concert at the iconic Lincoln Center Opera house following the late Barbara Cook.
Along with doing the concert, Chenoweth also originally received a scholarship after having taken part in the Metropolitan Opera National Council auditions back in the 90’s. However, she turned it down due to landing more Musical Theater stuff. At the same time, Chenoweth also was scheduled to make her Opera debut there starring as “Samira” in The Met’s 2010 revival production of John Corigliano’s THE GHOSTS OF VERSAILLES. However, that production got effected by the 2008 Great Economic Recession and was cancelled.
Full circle moment!!
