Today, in conjunction with BroadwayWorld's special summer-long series BRIDGING TV & THEATRE: DROP DEAD DIVA, we have the distinct privilege of world premiering a musical performance from Sunday night's episode, "Mother's Day"! This exclusive clip features DROP DEAD DIVA headliner Brooke Elliott alongside Broadway babies Sharon Lawrence and Faith Prince, performing a spunky and more-than-slightly funky karaoke version of the classic Bill Withers country/gospel/rock anthem "Lean On Me". In Sunday's episode, Lawrence returns as bubbly Bobbie Dobkins and Prince as Jane's dotty mother, Elaine, just in time for some familial and celebratory Mother's Day festivities - yet there are some surprises in store. What antics will the Ladies Bingum cook up and what secret does Bobbie Dobkins have to reveal? Plus, what is this rumor of a new romance between Bobbie and the firm's head partner, Parker? Be sure to tune in to DROP DEAD DIVA Sunday night at 9 PM on Lifetime to get briefed!
