Opera Superstar Renee Fleming Reveals Living on Love, Co-Starring Justin Long, is Broadway-Aimed

Opera superstar Renée Fleming, who starred in the world premiere of Living on Love opposite Justin Long (Jeepers Creepers, Seminar) at the Williamstown Theatre Festival this summer, has revealed the show is eyeing the Great White Way. “Right now we’re waiting on a Broadway theater to become available,” Fleming told LittleRock.com. A production spokesperson had nothing further to add to her comments.

Written by Joe DiPietro and directed by Kathleen Marshall, the WTF production of Living on Love cast also included Blake Hammond (First Date), Anna Chlumsky (Veep), Douglas Sills (Little Shop of Horrors) and Scott Robertson (The Boys From Syracuse). No word yet on which cast members, apart from Fleming, who would be transferring with the show.

In Living on Love, Fleming plays celebrated diva Rachel DeAngelis. When her husband, the fiery and egomaniacal Maestro Vito DeAngelis, becomes enamored with the lovely young lady hired to ghostwrite his long-delayed autobiography, Rachel retaliates by hiring her very own—and very handsome—ghostwriter to chronicle her life as an opera star. As the young writers try to keep themselves out of the story while churning out chapters, the high-energy—and high-maintenance—power duet threatens to fall out of tune for good. The comedy is adapted from Garson Kanin’s Peccadillo.
