It's the most wonderful time of year! The Groundlings Theatre's very merry holiday tradition is back this December with The Groundlings Holiday Show. Let the always hilarious Groundlings, Los Angeles' premiere comedy troupe of 43 years, put a little "Ha Ha Ha" in your "Ho Ho Ho"!
A concert series curated by the renowned Tony Award-winning composer, lyricist, conductor, and director, Jason Robert Brown. Each unique performance will incorporate an eclectic mix of material, featuring music from throughout his acclaimed career, along with new works in development.
Based on a true story, this one-act play written by and starring Groundlings' Annie Sertich puts a twist on the familiar one-woman show format. Not a typical show you'd find at The Groundlings, this exciting and different play about love and loss will take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions asking yourself, 'Did this really happen?' and the answer is yes. As in usual Groundlings fashion, the show will definitely provide a lot of laughs. This show has been seen by sold out audiences during previous runs in Los Angeles and New York.
Ana Gasteyer is a true renaissance woman. Having been a cast member on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE for six seasons, she subverted some expectations after leaving the sketch show by going on to play Elphaba in WICKED, originating the role in Chicago's sit-down production before eventually taking her Green Girl to Broadway.
Gasteyer has also had extensive success in the concert capacity, and she is now preparing for a major milestone in any solo performer's career: her debut at the Cafe Carlyle. BroadwayWorld spoke with Gasteyer ahead of her Carlyle shows, the first of which is on October 25, about the differences between SNL and eight shows a week (both are grueling, but disparately so), why she yearns for the emotional connection of performing live, and whether or not Donald Trump makes her miss being in the trenches of live comedy.
On last night's LATE NIGHT, funny lady and Broadway alum Ana Gasteyer performed a musical number from Donald Trump's 'old-timey' Christmas special! Below, watch her perform 'A Trumpy Kind of Christmas.'
