2025 Keynote Speaker

Kristen Chenoweth

Emmy and Tony Award winning actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth’s career spans film, television, voiceover and stage. In 2009, she received an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in “Pushing Daisies.” In 1999, she won a Tony Award for “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown” and she was also nominated for her original role of Glinda the Good Witch in “Wicked” in 2004. In 2009, she wrote an upliftingly candid, comedic chronicle of her life so far, “A Little Bit Wicked,” which debuted on the New York Times Hardcover Non-Fiction Best Seller List.

Chenoweth has also joined Kathy Najimy, Linda Perry, Chely Wright and Lauren Blitzer as an editor of “My Moment: 106 Women on Fighting for Themselves.” Just released, the essay collection is inspired by — but not limited to — the #MeToo movement and lets women from the entertainment industry and other walks of life describe a crucial point of adversity that propelled them into forward motion for good.

Her newest major project is the development of the musical based on the award-winning 2012 documentary The Queen of Versailles and the life of beauty queen, socialite, and TV personality Jacqueline “Jackie” Siegel. Chenoweth is starring in and producing the show. The musical made its world premiere at Boston’s Emerson Colonial Theatre on Aug 1 and will make its Broadway debut in the 2025-2026 season. She can next be seen in “Our Little Secret” for Netflix opposite Lindsay Lohan.
