Kandi Burruss To Star In Broadway’s “Chicago” In New York City

Just weeks after Xscape sat through a painfully awkward interview on “Watch What Happens Live” with Andy  Cohen, where Kandi Burruss explained that she would be taking her talents to Broadway instead of releasing new music with the group, the singer’s new gig has been revealed.

The Grammy-winning songwriter has officially signed on to star in one of the longest-running Broadway musicals of all time. Burruss is now set to star as Matron “Mama” Morton in Broadway’s “Chicago” from Jan. 15 through March 11 at the Ambassador Theatre in New York City.

Burruss will be joined by the likes of Tony Award nominee Charlotte d’Amboise, original cast member Leigh Zimmerman, and YouTube star Todrick Hall. In the meantime, the three others ladies of Xscape have hired Vince Herbert to move on with their singing career as a unit. They’ve also dropped two new tracks without their fourth member, titled, “Wifed Up” and “Dream Killa.”
