When is Kelly Clarkson coming to Broadway?

Kelly Clarkson is such a powerhouse vocalist and seems like she would make a great fit in a good musical. With her work on Josh Groban's Stages album and on the Hamilton Mixtape, Broadway has to be in the cards.

What roles do you think would she be good in? And would it be a revival or an original?

Yes. Lol



while I think she has one of the best voices, if not the best voice in the pop genre, I don't think she has any acting experience and her voice alone won't carry her through a show. I love her. But not for the stage

Josh Groban's only real acting gigs were mainly small cameo appearances as himself. He seems to be doing well in Comet and he's bringing in a lot of money. Why couldn't it be expected that Kelly do the same?

No acting experience? Have you even seen "From Justin to Kelley"????

Kelly has a tremendous voice and charm for days. I don't think anyone doubts that. However, she has said before that her passion is singing and she doesn't intend to move into acting. I recall reading somewhere that she doesn't think she's a good actress, so she's happy where she is.

All of that being said, I'd love to hear her sing a fun, spunky role--Annie Oakley or Ado Annie, perhaps.

GYPSY revival in 2024.

I'm thinking something rock-ish, that lets her show her voice. She has a really likable and endearing personality and if directed well I could see her shining in something If/Then-like.

Yeah, a concert where she sings her songs for 2 hours or so. I think she'd be great in that. A role on Broadway? Not so much.

I also don't think she would want to tackle a role on stage, but boy would I love to hear her sing She Used to Be Mine.

Yes, and Justin is currently on Broadway in In Transit!

She'd be a fun Annie Oakley! I doubt she would do a Broadway run, but a concert version at the Hollywood Bowl or somewhere in that vein would be more likely!

She'd be a heavy favorite for any substantial role.

I think she would be fantastic as Jenna in Waitress
