Kristin Chenoweth stopped by the Bravo Clubhouse last night and told host Andy Cohen that she's coming back to Broadway! When a musical theater fan called into the show to ask the actress which musical she would love to do on the Great White Way, she replied, "I think there's big news coming which I can't say yet, but someday I'd like to play 'Hello Dolly.'

Asked Cohen, 'There's big news coming, so that means you will be coming back to Broadway?". "Oh, yeah!" replied the star.'

Also, director Richard Jay-Alexander talks about what it's like working with both Chenoweth and Barbra Streisand - and how they compare.
