The Broadway favorite will play six shows at the Manhattan venue, May 16-18, 2024. Buckley will be joined by musical director Christian Jacob on piano, Tony Marino on bass, and Dan Rieser on drums.
Texas native Buckley, who starred as Dolly
Gallagher Levi in the national tour of the Tony-winning revival of Hello, Dolly!, won her Tony Award for her performance as Grizabella in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cats, later earning another nomination for her work in the musical Triumph of Love. She starred in both the London and New York productions of Sunset Boulevard, earning
an Olivier nomination for her take on the ill-fated silent-screen star
Norma Desmond. London audiences have also enjoyed Buckley's work in Promises, Promises and Dear World, and her other Broadway credits include Carrie, Song & Dance, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, 1776, and Promises, Promises.
A 2012 Theatre Hall of Fame inductee and the 2017 recipient of the
Julie Harris Award from The Actors Fund for Artistic Achievement,
Buckley's most recent screen credits include Split, Law & Order:
Special Victims Unit, The Cleaning Lady, Supergirl, The Film Crew,
Preacher, Chicago Med, The Leftovers, Getting On, Pretty Little Liars, and The Happening.
She has been awarded two honorary doctorates of fine arts for her
contribution to the musical theatre by Marymount College and the Boston
Conservatory of Music.
The Tony winner's solo comedy, which played three nights only at Audible's Minetta Lane Theatre earlier this year, has returned to the venue for three weeks.
