860 is an upcoming comedic one-man play by American actor and playwright Billy Crystal about his experiences losing his home in the Palisades fire in 2025, with the title derived from his old home address.[1] The production is set to premiere on Broadway at the Imperial Theatre in October 2026, directed by Scott Ellis.[2]
Plot
Amid the aftermath of Crystal losing his home to the Palisades fire in 2025, the play details his experience reliving the memories of his life there over the course of 46 years and how humor helped him cope with the loss.[3][4]

Crystal confirmed that the production will feature real video footage he shot during the tragedy.[7]
