Just back in town from Kristin Chenoweth's sold out, uber-successful, first ever Australian concert tour, we asked Kristin and her cast to send us snapshots and memories from their trip.
On Friday evening, May 24, Playbill's Blake Ross and BroadwayWorld.com's Rob and Jennifer Diamond co-hosted the only birthday party that took two editors of two major theatre web sites to plan ... Director/Producer Richard Jay-Alexander's 60th Birthday Bash! The party, held on the third floor of theatre district hot spot Angus McIndoe's restaurant, played host to friends, family, colleagues and more, so we couldn't resist sharing some of Linda Lenzi's wonderful pictures with you. Happy 60th Birthday!
Welcome to the fifth installment of Music City Confidential, my column to collect the flotsam and jetsam, informationally speaking, of theatre in Tennessee.

Saturday night, after giving her all on stage (as if that wasn't enough), Kristin Chenoweth hosted a fundraising event upstairs in the Grand Tier of City Center for her charity, Maddie's Corner (http://www.maddiescorner.org/). She spoke about the charity, as well as ASTEP (Mary-Mitchell Cambell's charity - http://asteponline.org/) and Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS (http://bcefa.org/) before going into the finale of her show, which was a song called 'I Was Here' from her new album, SOME LESSONS LEARNED.
