Billy Crystal's latest Broadway news centers on a new one-man show, not a revival of 700 Sundays. Recent announcements highlight his upcoming production 860, inspired by personal loss.
Billy Crystal will return to Broadway this fall in 860, a solo autobiographical play he wrote and will perform. Directed by Scott Ellis, it opens previews in October 2026 for a 12-week run at a yet-to-be-named Shubert Theatre.[1]
The title refers to the address of Crystal's family home in Los Angeles, where they lived for 46 years before it was destroyed in the 2025 Palisades wildfires. Crystal described it as a "joyous and heartfelt visit" sharing funny and touching stories from his career and family life there.[2][4][1]
700 Sundays, Crystal's 2004 Tony-winning one-man show about his childhood and father, was his Broadway debut and a major success, later taped for HBO. 860 follows a similar intimate solo format but focuses on his wildfire-destroyed home, marking his first Broadway return since Mr. Saturday Night in 2022.[4][5][1]
Billy Crystal is returning to Broadway in a new solo show. '860,' written by and starring the Tony winner, will premiere in October at a to-be-announced theater. The play centers on the home Crystal and his family lived in for 46 years until it was destroyed in the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires.
