The Imbible: A Spirited History of Drinking playing at the New World Stages has a 5 p.m. Saturday show. It's a history of drinking told with a comedic flair.

"Perfected their roles". LOL. They were both in the tour until September 2006. This performance was in July. Do we know if the perfection had occurred by then? I wouldn't want a playbill from their imperfect period.

For the record, I have zero issue with her playing Harriet Tubman but I wouldn't refer to her getting 3/4 of the EGOT for the same role as a "distinction".
