Broadway Star Melissa Errico on Barbra Streisand, Alec Baldwin and Her New Album ‘I Can Dream Can’t I?’

The Tony-nominated star opens up about honoring Barbra Streisand and the Fitzgeralds to channeling her glamorous Aunt Rose in her latest show

From celebrating the artistry of Barbra Streisand to exploring the world of Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald with longtime friend Alec Baldwin, Tony Award–nominated actress Melissa Errico is having a remarkably creative year—and it’s only getting busier.

The Broadway favorite recently released her new single “There’ll Be Another Spring,” written by Peggy Lee, and is gearing up for her upcoming album I Can Dream Can’t I?, a fresh and thoughtful take on the Great American Songbook.

Errico will release a new song from the project every other week leading up to the album’s January 30, 2026 debut. A special three-song holiday bundle will precede the full release. The collection includes classics like “All in Fun” (Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein) and “Dancing on the Ceiling” (Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart). Accompanied by pianist Tedd Firth, Errico brings new life to both beloved standards and hidden gems.

“All the music that I’m attracted to is about connection,” she tells Woman’s World during a Zoom interview. “You can feel someone looking for the courage to connect—a vulnerable, frightened desire. The most memorable music, whether nostalgic or modern, carries an empowering message we need to hear. Life keeps happening, and songs help us process and feel good again.”
