‘860’ Broadway Review: Billy Crystal Remembers The Stuff Of Life And Loss

Billy Crystal’s Broadway solo show 860 looks back at his career through the keepsakes lost when his Pacific Palisades home was destroyed in the 2025 wildfires. The review says the show balances comedy with grief, using memories of the objects to explore family, friendship and the experiences that shaped his life.

The production recreates Crystal’s home office, while archival footage and performance clips revisit both the fires and moments from his career. Crystal performs familiar material, including his impersonations of Muhammad Ali and Howard Cosell, and recalls work from Soap, Saturday Night Live, City Slickers and When Harry Met Sally; no family members or friends were injured in the fire.
