Look out NeNe Leakes – there’s a new Real Housewives Of Atlanta–turned-Broadway star about to be born! Kandi Burruss will be joining cast of Chicago this January.
“I can officially announce that I will be performing as Mama Morton in Chicago on Broadway January 15th- March 11th!!!!! I’m so excited!” Kandi shared on Instagram. “Get your tickets now & check out the announcement on People.com #Thankful #Blessed #LivingMyBestLife#DreamsDoComeTrue” The show airs at the legendary Ambassador Theater in NYC.
Interestingly, NeNe also played Mama Morton in Chicago when she was on Broadway. (She also starred in Cinderella).
This isn’t the Xscape singer‘s first attempt at Broadway, however – a few years back Kandi wrote, produced, and starred in her own musical called “A Mother’s Love” with dreams of it someday reaching the great, white way – unfortunately some bad tour deals ground it to a halt.

This is such an amazing accomplishment, so congrats Kandi. And what do you want to bet she gets a spinoff surrounding her Broadway experiences?
