Get ready for an unforgettable night of storytelling and music as Melissa Etheridge takes Broadway by storm with her theatrical event, Melissa Etheridge: My Window. This limited nine-week residency is set to begin on Thursday, September 14, with the official opening on Thursday, September 28, at the Circle in the Square Theatre.
“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,” said the Grammy and Academy Award winner in a statement.
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 theatergoers.”
Melissa Etheridge has been entertaining for over two decades, and Melissa Etheridge: My Window offers an inside look at her life. Theatergoers will experience an evening of storytelling and music with stories from her childhood in Kansas and highlights of her career. Hits like “I’m the Only One,” “Come to My Window,” and “I Want to Come Over” are just a few of the songs that will be performed throughout the night.
Etheridge offered a glimpse of the show in October 2022 with an Off Broadway production that lasted three weeks and was sold out. 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.
Melissa Etheridge: My Window is written by Melissa Etheridge, with additional material by Linda Wallem-Etheridge (Nurse Jackie showrunner, That ‘70s Show), and directed by Amy Tinkham (Aerosmith’s Deuces Are Wild Las Vegas Residency, Dancing with the Stars Live).
