Multi-award-winning stage and screen superstar Kristin Chenoweth is set to present a new PBS concert special this November titled KRISTIN CHENOWETH: COMING HOME and the versatile performers discusses details of the endeavor in a new interview.

Shedding some light on her Oklahoma upbringing and her desire to film a concert in her hometown, Chenoweth says, "I wanted this to be something really special, that would help raise money, and that would show off this beautiful theater and make people aware of what's being done there in Broken Arrow."

"That's why it was always part of my plan to have these concerts filmed, " Chenoweth adds.

Additionally, Chenoweth shares of what viewers can expect from the show, "I've been working with my new director, Kenny Ortega, in putting this show together... We've been working on some things I've wanted to do for a long time, as well as discovering new ways to think about things I've done in the past."

Plus, Chenoweth offers, "I'll have My Music director, Mary-Mitchell Campbell, and we'll bring a guitarist, bass player and drummer with us... The rest of the orchestra will be made up of local musicians, and I'm very excited by that. The whole concept of this evening is about coming home, and I wanted to include people from my hometown."

KRISTIN CHENOWETH: COMING HOME airs November 28 on PBS.
