Today we are talking to a Tony Award-winning star known for her many impressive appearances on Broadway in JELLY'S LAST JAM, PLAY ON!, THE WILD PARTY and her tremendous title turn in the towering CAROLINE, OR CHANGE - the one and only Tonya Pinkins. Opening up about her career and many of her most memorable roles, Pinkins lets us in to her world and shares experiences of working with some of the most noted names in theatre - George C. Wolfe, Harold Prince, August Wilson, Stephen Sondheim, Lloyd Richards, Daniel Sullivan, David Esbjornson and many more among them - on everything from MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG, her Broadway debut, to her many musical roles to August Wilson's THE PIANO LESSON and RADIO GOLF all the way to last season's Shakespeare In The Park double-header of THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR and MEASURE FOR MEASURE. Most importantly, Pinkins fills us in on all the details about her upcoming Ethel Waters tribute at 54 Below and what we can expect from one of musical theatre's most dynamic divas taking on the song catalog of an entertainment pioneer in this New York premiere of the in-development new musical solo spotlight showcase. Additionally, Pinkins shares some candid reminiscences about some of her most fondly remembered film and television roles - such as ABOVE THE RIM, BEAT STREET, ROMANCE & CIGARETTES, ENCHANTED and others - as well as offers her thoughts on the ever-changing world of soaps, having appeared in major roles on both AS THE WORLD TURNS and ALL MY CHILDREN. All of that, comments on her two upcoming feature films - HOME and NEWLYWEEDS - and much, much more!

'Sprechen Sie englisch?' fragt Hugh Laurie bei seinem Konzert im Berliner Tempodrom in gebrochenem deutsch. Für alle die dies vielleicht nicht beherrrschen, könne dann der Sitznachbar übersetzen meint Laurie verschmitzt und nimmt am Klavier Platz. Das steht auf einer Bühne, die aussieht wie eine Mischung aus Wohnzimmer, Pub und Cowboy-Rodeo-Gedächtnis Bar. Inmitten von Stehlampen unterschiedlichster Art und Größen wirkt Hugh Laurie fast wie ein Fremdkörper. Dieser große, beinahe ungelenk wirkende Brite will also allen Ernstens amerikanischer Musik fröhnen. Ja er will und er kann es!
