Billy Crystal will return to Broadway this fall as the writer and star of 860, a new autobiographical solo show running for 12 weeks only, from October 1 to January 3, at the Imperial Theatre. Opening night is October 21.

“I am thrilled to return to Broadway this fall with this challenging new show,” Crystal said in a statement. “860 was the address of the home we lost in the Palisades fires [in Los Angeles in 2025]. We lived there for 46 years.

"I invite you to come inside 860 and I’ll tell you all the funny and touching things that happened there, not only in my career but to our family. It’s a joyous and heartfelt visit, about how with the love of family and friends and your inner strength, you can get through tough times. I look forward to returning to Broadway and welcoming audiences to 860.”

Crystal made his Broadway debut in 2004 with another solo show, the Tony Award-winning and Emmy-nominated 700 Sundays, and most recently appeared in the 2022 Broadway musical adaptation of his 1992 film Mr. Saturday Night. His other best-known film credits include When Harry Met Sally…, The Princess Bride, and the Monsters, Inc. franchise, and he's a former Saturday Night Live cast member, nine-time Oscars host, and three-time Grammys host. He's won a total of six Emmys and been nominated for three Grammys across his career, among numerous other accolades.

Olivier Award winner Scott Ellis, represented on Broadway in 2026 with Fallen Angels, directs Crystal in 860. Additional creative team members will be announced in the coming weeks.
