We're so excited to kick off our Tony week by getting Broadwaysted with Johanna Day, the Tony-nominated star of Sweat! We're all pouring out...water (pace yourselves for Tony week, kids!) while Johanna gushes about her experience in the Pulitzer Prize-winning play...and why she's a Pulitzer Prize Good Luck Charm!
We discuss seeing plays adapted into films, Johanna's incredible career (Tony nominee for PROOF, the all-star cast of YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU, the game-changing AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY...I mean, come on!), and how the acting process evolves over time.
Game Master Kimberly introduces the new game "Broadway Superlatives" with Lights of Broadway Show Cards and this week's edition of the new segment #StageDoorStories brings a great story from the Dark Side.
Johanna has some hilarious answers to our questions and Kevin tells a high school theater story about "The Stairs that Go Nowhere" so make sure to start your Tony week right--with a healthy dose of Broadwaysted!
