ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY welcomes back its leading lady!

The brand new Broadway revival of ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY starring Kristin Chenoweth and Peter Gallagher opened recently to rave reviews and received multiple 2015 Tony Award nominations including Best Actress In A Musical and Chenoweth explains a recent absence from the production earlier this week at a matinee due to a stomach bug as well as promises she will return for tonight's performance in a new series of messages on social media.

Chenoweth commented on Twitter last night, revealing, "So happy to be back at the theater tonight #badturkeysandwich"

Yesterday, she posted, "I'm so sorry fans and theater goers. Missing matinee. Stomach bug all night. Going to try for tonight. #weak,' before returning for last night's evening performance.

The official description of ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY is as follows: "It's nonstop laughs aboard the Twentieth Century, a luxury train travelling from Chicago to New York City. Luck, love and mischief collide when the bankrupt theater producer Oscar Jaffee (Golden Globe® winner Peter Gallagher) embarks on a madcap mission to cajole glamorous Hollywood starlet Lily Garland (Emmy® and Tony Award® winner Kristin Chenoweth) into playing the lead in his new, non-existent epic drama. But is the train ride long enough to reignite the spark between these former lovers, create a play from scratch, and find the money to get it all the way to Broadway? 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 You Can't Take It With You, Elephant Man (Tony-nominated director Scott Ellis), back in the spotlight nearly 40 years after making its Broadway debut. Grab your ticket and hop onboard this fun-filled musical journey to The Great White Way!"
