We went from Broadway Bares All to Broadway Bares Its Soul and it made us cry.
I love me some Tyne Daly and she just became even more loveable after she shared some of her personal history with us this past weekend at the close of It Shoulda Been You.
Billy Porter takes on one of the lead roles in Kinky Boots, one of my favorite movies of all time and now THE Broadway smash that it is. Billy's words are not secondary to Tyne's and are just as powerful and beautiful.
We thank both of you for briefly sharing your stories. It meant a lot to see how the adversity of two very different stars ties into the Friday's SCOTUS decision.
Synopsis of It Shoulda Been You
The bride is Jewish. The groom is Catholic. Her mother is a force of nature, his mother is a tempest in a cocktail shaker. And when the bride’s ex-boyfriend shows up, the perfect wedding starts to unravel faster than you can whistle “Here Comes the Bride!” Plots are hatched, pacts are made, secrets exposed – and the sister of the bride is left to turn a tangled mess into happily ever after!
Synopsis of Kinky Boots
Charlie Price has suddenly inherited his father’s shoe factory, which is on the verge of bankruptcy. Trying to live up to his father’s legacy and save his family business, Charlie finds inspiration in Lola. A fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos, Lola turns out to be the one person who can help Charlie become the man he’s meant to be. As they work to turn the factory around, this unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they ever dreamed possible.
