For one week in July, Dave Chappelle will be Broadway’s newest star. Will he be performing his more traditional stand-up routine or spouting soliloquies about love lost in a one-man show? We don’t really know for sure, but Dave Chappelle Live On Broadway be at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre July 9-13 for a limited five-show run. Later this year, the veteran comedian will receive the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center. Chappelle is the latest in a string of short-term residencies at the Lunt-Fontanne, which included previous shows from Morrissey and Yanni. Regina Spektor will take over June 20-26 with a show that promises to elevate your everyday concert with undisclosed “theatrical elements.”
