(HOLMDEL, NJ) -- Following her sold-out NYC solo concerts, Tony® nominee and Grammy Award winner Jenn Colella makes her Holmdel Theatre Company Broadway at the Barn debut on Saturday, November 4, 2023 at 8:00pm. Throughout a delicious mix of pop, rock, funk and musical theatre songs, Jenn will share her coming out stories and celebrate love in all its many forms.

Broadway At The Barn is a series featuring New York City's finest talent from the Broadway stage and beyond. Experience these powerhouse performances in their one-of-a-kind intimate setting.

Come see why BroadwayWorld cabaret critic Stephen Mosher says, “I don’t believe I have ever seen an artist work a room the way that this singing actress does, and that’s what had me gobsmacked. Anybody who has only ever seen her play a part should get her concert appearances on their radar so that they, too, can go and learn, first hand, what it is to be Gobsmacked By Colella.”

Tickets are $57.50 and available for purchase online. The performance takes place in The Duncan Smith Theater, located at 36 Crawfords Corner Road in Holmdel, New Jersey.

Jenn Colella originated the role of Captain Beverley Bass in Come From Away on Broadway and received the Outer Critic Circle and Drama Desk Awards as well Craig Noel, Helen Hayes, and Dora Awards for the pre-Broadway productions. Previous Broadway credits include If/Then, Chaplin, High Fidelity, and Urban Cowboy (Outer Critics Circle Award nomination). Off- Broadway: Beebo Brinker Chronicles, Lucky Guy, Slut, and Closer Than Ever. Favorite Regionalas: Come From Away (La Jolla Playhouse, Ford’s Theatre, Toronto), Peter Pan (Sacramento Music Circus & PCLO), and Side Show (Kennedy Center).
