CHENOWETH PLANS NEW YEAR’S DASH
Actress/singer KRISTIN CHENOWETH is facing a coast-to-coast New Year’s dash, so she can appear onstage in New York for the finale of her musical PROMISES, PROMISES.
The stage and screen star is currently in Los Angeles rehearsing for her New Year’s Eve (31Dec10) performance at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. She’ll then spend the early hours of 2011 jetting to the Big Apple for Sunday’s (02Jan10) final performance of Promises, Promises on Broadway.
The show is closing after 280 regular performances.
So far, New York’s weather woes haven’t hampered Chenoweth’s plans, and now she’s hoping she can stay awake for her demanding start to the New Year.
She tells the Los Angeles Times newspaper, "Iâm tired even thinking about it. But itâs a good kind of tired. When youâre a singer, New Yearâs Eve is always a work night. I canât remember the last time Iâve had that day off, and Iâm so used to it." And, to add to everything Chenoweth has to deal with, her West Hollywood home has been wrecked by water damage from a burst pipe.
But the fun-loving star is refusing to let the drama bring her down: "There are people out there without roofs over their heads, so Iâm not complaining."
