NEW YORK (AP) — Krystal Joy Brown has planted her flag on Broadway, first professionally and now personally. The singer and actor just bought an apartment a few blocks from where she’s earning a living at the Hudson Theatre. How perfectly appropriate that Brown is co-starring in a musical love letter to Broadway in a critically acclaimed revival of Stephen Sondheim’s “Merrily We Roll Along.” This new “Merrily We Roll Along” is a redemption of sorts for a musical that was considered a flop when it arrived in 1981, a show that goes backward in time from 1976 to 1957 as it examines the friendship of three artists.
