The show will be directed by Robbie Rozelle.
How do you solve a problem like Jennifer Diamond? That's been a recurring theme as she's navigated a career in musical theatre. Always "a little too much of" one thing and "not enough of" another, she's never been able to find a place to plant herself and be exactly enough. Throwing caution to the wind and freeing herself from a room at Pearl, "Let Me Be Me" unleashes the authentic Jennifer as she traverses roles she has played, should play and could play - with special guests and a full band - if only they would just let her be her. Originally intended for March of 2020, the pandemic and a new child added their own curveballs and chaos to explore.
"Let Me Be Me" is written by Jennifer Diamond and Robbie Rozelle. It is directed by BroadwayWorld Award-winning director Robbie Rozelle and features musical direction and arrangements by Luke Williams. The evening is produced by Evan Sacks.
"Creating this show has been such joy for me. Working with Robbie and Luke to build something from the ground up that has let me express things creatively in new ways has been one of the most exciting and fun experiences of my career, and I can't wait to share it with everyone." - Jennifer Diamond

Jennifer Diamond was last seen Off-Broadway in This One's for the Girls. Prior to that she performed throughout the city in her solo show "It's My First Time: Please Be Gentle." Her first stage role was Sandy in Grease at the age of 10, because it just makes sense. She had the pleasure of touring the world performing a duet with Kristin Chenoweth in a featured role at venues such as Carnegie Hall, The Sydney Opera House and the Hollywood Bowl. Other notable credits include Evita (Eva Cover), Into the Woods, Les Misérables and Ruthless! The Musical. She can be heard alongside an all-star cast on the album "BroadwayWorld Visits Oz." @thejenniferdiamond www.jenniferhdiamond.com
