Country star Maren Morris has revealed that she has her sights set on Broadway. In an interview with Today, the star talked about how she is going to be taking a step back from touring after she wraps her current dreamGIRL Tour. During her free time, she plans to spend more time with her son and focus on songwriting. She also shared that she would be interested in writing for Broadway someday.
“I feel like Broadway – it’s just a storytelling medium and you get more time,” she said. “So I would love to do something like that, write for a musical.”
Morris has previously lent her writing talents to the big screen, having co-written the tracks “Kiss the Sky” and “Even When I’m Not” for DreamWorks Animation’s The Wild Robot in 2024.
“I’m excited to home a little bit more after this run,” Morris said of her upcoming break from touring. “So we’ll do this string of shows, knock it out, and I’ll go home. My son is starting kindergarten and I really wanted to be off the road when that began. I’ll just get back in the studio and figure out what the F happens next.”
