Show Notes

Today, it is my great honor to announce the final installment of my “Week of Wine and Roses” with Broadway legend Kelli O’Hara. Tune in to hear some of the stories and insights of her auspicious career, including: the role she wishes she could do again, the benefits of revising Golden Age musicals, why THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA was psychologically difficult, the joys of working with Brian D’Arcy James, a memorable injury at KISS ME KATE, the experience of being pregnant during THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY, how she read the script to SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS before she ever auditioned, the condescension she’s faced in the opera world, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this in-depth, intelligent conversation with one of Broadway’s brightest lights.
