Show Notes

Today, I’m so happy to announce my episode with Tony nominee Mary Beth Peil. Tune in today to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including the challenges of her opera background, falling in love with Yul Brynner, the type of feedback Stephen Sondheim always gave her, the show that came to Broadway too quickly, why she had been practicing for many years for Anastasia, being directed by Edward Albee, working with Roger Rees on The Visit, how she ended up in a starring role on Dawson’s Creek, taking on the role of King Duncan in Macbeth, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this insightful conversation with a legend of the stage.
