The Coming Home Tour is a recent concert tour by American actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth.
Coming Home
The title is taken from Chenoweth's live album, Coming Home, which was filmed and recorded in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma in 2014. It was Chenoweth's highest peaking album yet, hitting #48 on the US charts, and after a Broadway run in On the 20th Century, she embarked on tour. Chenoweth has received warm reviews on the tour.[1]
The tour was a rotating set of concerts consisting of Chenoweth being accompanied by a full symphony orchestra, a small band, and some of the world's major symphony orchestras.
Other work
While doing the concert tour, Chenoweth has been doing quite a bit of other work. In the film world she has recorded a role for the upcoming My Little Pony: The Movie and filmed Class Rank, in which she will play Janet Krauss. She additionally voiced the role of Fifi the Poodle in The Peanuts Movie, and in early 2016, a movie starring her that had been in post-production for two years, Hard Sell, was released. In the television world, a pilot she starred in titled Micah the Asshole Ghost, which wrapped filming in 2013, has resurfaced and will air sometime in 2017 as a movie. Meanwhile, she has been shooting the Disney Channel original movie Descendants 2, reprising her role as Maleficent, and is currently in rehearsal for Hairspray Live! on NBC, in which she plays Velma Von Tussle. She also made a third voice appearance as Vanessa Gekko on BoJack Horseman, appeared on The Muppets, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and appeared as a celebrity panelist on Match Game. She will play the goddess Easter in the pilot episode of American Gods, set to air sometime in 2017.
