ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY is the hilarious Tony-winning musical comedy from the creators of Sweet Charity (composer Cy Coleman), Singin' in the Rain (lyricist-librettists Betty Comden and Adolph Green), After Midnight (Tony-winning choreographer Warren Carlyle) and The Mystery of Edwin Drood (Tony-nominated director Scott Ellis), back in the spotlight nearly 40 years after making its Broadway debut.
Emmy and Tony Award winner and Hollywood Bowl and Oklahoma Hall of Fame inductee, Kristin Chenoweth effortlessly transitions between stage, television, film and an accomplished singing career. Many remember her show-stealing, Tony-winning performance in You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown and her triumphant star turn when she originated the role of Glinda in Wicked, which earned her a leading actress Tony Award nomination. While starring in the ABC series "Pushing Daisies," she received an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. Chenoweth has appeared on Fox's comedy "Glee" in a role for which she was nominated for two Emmy Awards. Chenoweth has completed production on the Universal film The Boy Next Door, alongside Jennifer Lopez, Opposite Sex, an indie teen drama entitled Hard Sell and the Disney Channel's live-action original movie Descendants, in which she will play the classic Sleeping Beauty villain Maleficent. Her new album, "Coming Home," was just released on Concord Records.
