This is one of the  CRAZIEST things I've ever read, and while I don't doubt we'll see her do something theatre related at some point... I don't think this is it.

The rumor going around is that she will hop on as a producer for The Notebook. She’s close with Ingrid.

That would make the most sense. There's good reasons why pop stars, especially mega stars like Swift & Gaga won't perform on Broadway. Rehearsals, tryouts, and a commitment to stay on long enough so the producers / investors can recoup their investments. They can make more money in less time recording and touring.

The only way she’s headed to Broadway is if she 1) wrote the music for a show 2) decided to do a unplugged residency ala springsteen

While it would be really cool to see more concert residences on Broadway like Springsteen, a mega star like Taylor Swift would cause chaos on Broadway. You saw how fast tickets sold out for her Eras tour, imagine that happening with an intimate Broadway theater! I think Taylor would be better off with producing. She would definitely help boost sales for The Notebook if she truly is on the producing team!

Zero chance of this happening.

Only time we will see TS on Broadway is if she writes a musical. Which would be very exciting.

I saw her show at MET stadium. Thrilling.

I have heard this also.

Coming to Broadway does not necessarily mean performing on Broadway.

She's much too big of a name to grace a Broadway stage. She's selling out 100k seat stadiums with ease. Giving her even the largest Broadway house would be chaos. Even if it's a revival of Scandalous or Carrie.

I want to personally thank you for the mental image of Taylor Swift in Scandalous! LOL

I like Taylor Swift a lot,but if she performed in any type of Broadway show,the stage door would be absolute hell on earth. A security nightmare.

Oh, she would not sign or take pictures. She would get SWAMPPED! They would keep the barricades a good distance from the stage door. She would take a second to wave to both sides, then get into her car. Kinda like what Bruce Springsteen did.

I could see her writing a Broadway musical like Sara Bareilles did with "Waitress". She seems to be quite a prolific songwriter but that would probably be a bunch of years from now.
