The Original Glinda!
This very special concert sees one of modern Broadway's most famous faces teaming up with the Boston Pops Orchestra. Tony and Emmy-winning performer Kristin Chenoweth will take to the Tanglewood stage to sing some of her favorite numbers from her long and illustrious stage career. The Pops Orchestra will be conducted by Thomas Wilkins, and there will be fireworks following the show.
Modern musical theatre royalty, Kristin Chenoweth first rose to real prominence with her Tony-winning turn in You're a God Man, Charlie Brown, and later her stunning (and never bettered) role in Wicked, originating the character of Glinda The Good Witch. She recently wowed the Broadway crowds again in On The Twentieth Century, earning a Tony nomination as temperamental actress Llly. She's also a regular star of screens both small and silver, appearing in The West Wing, Pushing Dasies and The Pink Panther.
