Tony Award winner Priscilla Lopez, who appeared in the legendary original cast of A Chorus Line and was also a replacement for the role of "Fastrada" in the original production of Pippin in 1973, will re-join the all-new Tony Award winning production of Pippin in the role of "Berthe" beginning tonight, Tuesday, November 11. Lucie Arnaz played her final performance in the role on Sunday, November 9 and has rejoined the US national tour.

On this latest (and 35th) episode of The Ensemblist, Nikka and Mo interview three performers who are privileged enough to be veterans of both Broadway and West End stages. Hillary Elk, Andrew Kober, and Kristen Beth Williams compare their experiences performing on both sides of the pond. Since all three started their careers on Broadway, they each explain how the opportunity arose, how the West End traditions compare to Broadway's, and how their lives changed because of the experience.
