A Holiday Evening With Kristin Chenoweth
and the Minnesota OrchestraTue Dec 13, 2022
Orchestra Hall
She’s funny, engaging, and as vibrant as they come. Broadway darling Kristin Chenoweth’s talents are seemingly unending: Emmy and Tony Award-winning actress and singer, star of stage and screen, comedienne extraordinaire, consummate performer. With so much pizzazz, it’s easy to see why she’s as immensely “Popular” as one of her trademark songs. Chenoweth returns to Orchestra Hall in this glittering night of entertainment featuring new arrangements of holiday favorites.
A Few Things To Know
- A native of the Lower Midwest (Tulsa, Oklahoma), Kristin Chenoweth has come to love life here in the Upper Midwest, Minneapolis in particular. When performing with the Minnesota Orchestra in 2017, Chenoweth said, "let me just say I've had a love affair with this city for many years."
- In 1999, Chenoweth won a Tony Award for “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown” and she was nominated for her original role of Glinda the Good Witch in “Wicked” in 2004.
- In 2023, Chenoweth will release her hilarious and insightful gift book, “I'm No Philosopher, But I Have Thoughts: For Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us.”
