Kristin Chenoweth stopped by last night's LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS to talk about her new film co-starring Jennifer Lopez, and her upcoming return to Broadway in the revival of On the Twentieth Century. In preparation for the role, the actress explained that she has been on strict vocal rest. "After I get home at 6 o'clock I don't speak and I'm sure I seem rude to people. But I do smile!" she shared.

Checked out clips from the appearance below!

About On the Twentieth Century

It's nonstop laughs aboard the Twentieth Century, a luxury train traveling 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 The Mystery of Edwin Drood (Tony-nominated director Scott Ellis), back in the spotlight nearly 40 years after making its Broadway debut.

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). Grab your ticket and hop onboard this fun-filled musical journey to The Great White Way!
