Tony & Emmy Award winner Kristin Chenoweth will soon star alongside Golden Globe & SAG Award winner & Tony nominee Peter Gallagher in a new Broadway production of the classic musical On the Twentieth Century, directed by Scott Ellis and choreographed by Warren Carlyle. On the Twentieth Century features music by Cy Coleman and book & lyrics by Betty Comden & Adolph Green.

In recent Reddit AMA, Chenoweth was asked if she'd like to perform in London's West End. She responded: "I would LOVE to do a West End show. I would love to even do On the Twentieth Century there. That would be a dream come true. It's on my bucket list."

ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY will play a 20-week limited engagement through July 5, 2015, beginning previews on February 12, 2015 and opening officially on March 12, 2015 at the American Airlines Theatre on Broadway (227 West 42nd Street).

Chenoweth received rave reviews while starring in the ABC series "Pushing Daisies," where she received an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. "Pushing Daisies" was nominated for a Golden Globe Award and Emmy Award for "Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy". Chenoweth has appeared on Fox's comedy "Glee," for which she was nominated for two Emmy Awards and for a People's Choice Award in the category of Favorite TV Guest Star.

Chenoweth also starred as Annabeth Schott on the hit drama "The West Wing" and guest judged on "American Idol" and "Project Runway." Many remember her show-stealing, Tony-winning performance in You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown and her triumphant star turn when she originated the role of Glinda THE GOOD WITCH in Wicked, which earned her a leading actress Tony Award nomination.
