"I feel like I'm home", were the first words uttered by Tony Award-winning star of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Lena Hall, as she took the stage at Broadway Sessions on Thursday night March 3rd. And that's just how it felt in the room... like we were all home. Granted, a boozey, showtuney home, but home nonetheless.

Lena cozied up to host Ben Cameron to chat about touring with Josh Groban, her association with My Little Pony and it's fans (Bronies) following her famous "Friendship is Magic" reference during her Tony acceptance speech, and answered audience questions. Amidst the fun and games Hall blew the roof off the Laurie Beechman Theater with mind-blowing performances of tunes by Alanis Morisette, Radiohead and more.

Allegiance cast member/Broadway vet Marcus Choi was on hand to perform "Which Way is the Party", the Wicked tune that was cut and replaced by "Dancing Through Life." He and fellow Wicked alum, Ben Cameron, then went on to answer the question "who were you in Wicked?", with an impromptu mash up of their ensemble track performances.

Audience members got down right physical during a spirit round of "Name that Tony winner" and up and coming musical theater stars Shannon Rowland, Jonathan Mousset and Lindsey Mader bookended the night with stellar performances.

Be sure to catch Broadway Sessions this Thursday night, March 10th as we welcome cast members from the gorgeous revival of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF!
