She’s out of the orphanage, leaving McKinley High, and taking the stage at 54 Below. Glee and Annie star Jane Lynch will make her solo concert debut at the Times Square hotspot this June. The Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner will play four performances June 18 through 21.
Lynch won Emmy and Golden Globe Awards for her role as Glee’s tough, smart-mouthed cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester. She made her Broadway debut as Miss Hannigan in the recent revival of Annie, and appeared off-Broadway in Love, Loss, and What I Wore and The Real Live Brady Bunch and the Real Live Game Show. Her many screen credits include The 40 Year Old Virgin, Wreck-It Ralph, Julie & Julia, For Your Consideration, Role Models, A Mighty Wind and Best in Show. In addition to acting, Lynch also authored the bestselling autobiography Happy Accidents and hosts the NBC series Celebrity Game Night.
No news yet as to what Lynch might perform at her summer concerts, but we wouldn't mind hearing her reprise her terrifyingly hilarious rendition of "Little Girls," as well as her Glee-ful covers of Madonna's "Vogue" and Olivia Newton-John's "Physical."
