A pair of legendary leading ladies converge at ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY!

The brand new Broadway revival of ON THE 20TH CENTURY starring Kristin Chenoweth and Peter Gallagher opened recently to rave reviews and new behind the scenes photos of Chenoweth with fellow leading lady and iconic UK superstar Elaine Paige is now available to view, along with several others.

This week, Chenoweth posted an amusing candid shot of herself and similarly short-statured Paige, commenting, "Guess what diva and I are comparing feet size???" before quickly following up with the answer, revealing, "it is miss @elaine_paige she came to the show and I had a heart attack. I love her."

Following up, Paige posted a glowing comment about the production along with another pic, writing, "The wickedly wonderful @KChenoweth after her magnificent performance in On The 20th Century loved it".

The official description of ON THE 20TH 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!"

More information on ON THE 20TH CENTURY is available at the official site here.
