Actress Laila Robins has seen Broadway, the big screen and the small screen. But lately she has poured her soul onto the off-Broadway stage and into her character 'Marian Apple Platt', a role she originated in 2010 as part of The Apple Family Plays: Scenes from Life in the Country. BroadwayWorld recently spoke with Robins about the challenges and joys of revisiting 'Marian' afresh and being part of the fictional, liberal Apple family of Rhinebeck, New York, whose actors have become like a family of their own.

Earlier this week I posted how I voted for this season's Outer Critics Circle Awards, so now here are the picks from my ballot for the Drama Desk Awards, which will be presented Sunday night.
The 58th Annual Drama Desk took place last night, May 19th at Town Hall (123 W. 43rd Street), and miserable rain didn't stop the festivities. Some of the stars skipped the red carpet to avoid the weather and took shelter under the marquee of Town Hall. BroadwayWorld brings you photos of the dry attendees below!
Miserable rain didn't stop the red carpet last night at the 58th Annual Drama Desks, because neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these performers (or our photographer) from the swift completion of their appointed rounds. Check out photos below from the rainy red carpet!
