Tune in to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including collaborating with Steve Martin on BRIGHT STAR, taking LSD to prepare for FLYING OVER SUNSET, her upcoming role in BULL DURHAM, why the revival of CARRIE didn’t work, why the story of WICKED resonated with her, her abbreviated process with CALL ME MADAM, finding her take on the lead role in SOUTH PACIFIC, performing THE SECRET GARDEN for Prince Charles, how she earned an honorary degree, why she was hesitant to accept her role in LEMPICKA, co-starring with Faith Prince and Marin Mazzie, the difficulties of starring in SWEENEY TODD at the MUNY, how she almost became a jazz singer, her journey with THREE SUMMERS OF LINCOLN, and so much more. Don’t miss this in-depth conversation with one of Broadway’s brightest stars.
