Grammy and Oscar winner Melissa Etheridge, seen Off-Broadway at New World Stages in October 2022, is heading to Broadway this fall.
The acclaimed vocalist will play a nine-week residency at Circle in the Square Theatre beginning September 14. Entitled Melissa Etheridge: My Window, the production will officially open September 28.
Melissa Etheridge: My Window is written by Melissa Etheridge, with additional material by Linda Wallem-Etheridge (Nurse Jackie showrunner, That ‘70s Show) and direction by Amy Tinkham (Aerosmith’s Deuces Are Wild Las Vegas Residency, Dancing with the Stars Live).
Etheridge will offer theatregoers an evening of storytelling and music, from tales of her childhood in Kansas to her groundbreaking career highlights.
Etheridge says, “I truly love Broadway, and it’s long been a dream of mine to tell my story and share my music there. I never felt more connected to this community and New York audiences than I did after telling my life story off-Broadway last year. The intimacy of the live theatrical stage is like no other, and Circle in the Square is going to be a magical home for my show’s Broadway debut. I can't wait to come back to the City! It’s a deeply personal experience to be able to tell these stories again, in a fresh and exciting way, and reconnect with my fans and theatregoers.”
The production will also have scenic design by Emmy nominee Bruce Rodgers, lighting design by Abigail Rosen Holmes, projection design by Olivia Sebesky, and sound design by Colle Bustin.
The Broadway residency is produced by Michael Cohl and EMC Presents; in association with Larry Mestel, Deborah Klein, and Steven Greener for Primary Wave Music. Glenn Orsher serves as executive producer.
Performances will continue through November 19.
