Directed by Richard Jay-Alexander and featuring pianist and music director Mary-Mitchell Campbell, this newly created, one-night-only engagement showcases Ms. Chenoweth performing a varied evening of music that highlights her incredible range-from works influenced by her early operatic and classical training in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma to hit songs from her starring roles on Broadway and in film. In addition to popular hits and classical selections, Ms. Chenoweth will perform new works, standards, and even works popularized by amateur soprano Florence Foster Jenkins. This performance marks Ms. Chenoweth's first solo appearance at Carnegie Hall since her sold-out show in September 2004.

Kristin Chenoweth has added her name to the list of Broadway stars who have taken the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, but this time in a sparkly formal dress. She took the challenge after her hometown concert, KRISTIN CHENOWETH: COMING HOME, in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, joined by director Kenny Ortega and music director Mary Mitchell Campbell.
