'World's Most Beloved Opera Singer' Makes Broadway Debut in LIVING ON LOVE, Beginning Tonight

Four time Grammy Award winner Renée Fleming makes her Broadway debut alongside Tony Award nominee Douglas Sills, two-time Emmy Award nominee Anna Chlumsky, Jerry O'Connell, Blake Hammond and Scott Robertson in Living on Love by two-time Tony Award winner Joe DiPietro, based on the play Peccadillo by Garson Kanin, and directed by three-time Tony Award winner Kathleen Marshall. Living on Love begins performances tonight, April 1, 2015 and opens on Monday, April 20, 2015 at the Longacre Theatre (220 West 48th Street). The production will play an 18-week engagement through Sunday, August 2, 2015.

The world's most beloved opera singer Renée Fleming plays the world's most beloved opera singer in this hilarious new screwball comedy. When her larger-than-life maestro husband (Sills) becomes enamored with the lovely young lady (Chlumsky) hired to ghostwrite his largely fictional autobiography, the diva retaliates by hiring her own handsome, young scribe (O'Connell) to chronicle her life as an opera star. Sparks fly, silverware is thrown, and romance blossoms in the most unexpected ways.

The creative team includes Derek McLane (Scenic Design), Michael Krass (Costume Design), Peter Kaczorowski (Lighting Design), Scott Lehrer (Sound Design) and Rob Fisher (Music Consultant).

Living on Love is produced on Broadway by Scott Landis, Philip Morgaman, Ryan Chang, TNT Dynamite Productions, Just For Laughs Theatricals, Glass Half Full Productions, Stephanie P. McClelland, Judith M. Box, Alix Ritchie/John Yonover, Gregory Franklin/Phil Kenny in association with Williamstown Theatre Festival (Mandy Greenfield, Artistic Director).

This production was first presented in July 2014 at the Williamstown Theatre Festival (Jenny Gersten, Artistic Director) in Williamstown, Massachusetts, where it also featured Ms. Fleming, Ms. Chlumsky, Mr. Sills, Mr. Hammond, Mr. Robertson and was directed by Ms. Marshall.
