When I was waxing rhapsodic about Raul Esparza’s lead in the PBS special of Stephen Sondheim’s Company, I neglected to really focus on the fact that he was also supported by a stellar cast.
Thankfully, BroadwayWorld.com has made up for it, with a fantastic interview with Barbara Walsh. A true gypsy who started in the kind of dinner theatre where “you rehearsed a show in the daytime, did another show at night, and did things like paint and move scenery.”, she went on to a stellar career being in shows such as:
- Chess
- Some Men
- Falsettos
- Blood Brothers
- Hairspray
- Ragtime
- Big, the Musical
- Ragtime
- Company (as captured in Great Performances on PBS)
…and on March 13th she starts previews of the CENTERSTAGE production of A Little Night Music.
Read the whole interview and get a glimpse of another great of the Broadway world…
