This week the Broadwaysted Crew is clicking our heels in excitement to be sitting down with DAMES AT SEA and THE RADIO CITY NEW YORK SPECTACULAR star hoofer, Danny Gardner. While Kevin is still in Chicago for his musical, the crew welcomes #EnemyOfTheShow (and Kimberly's fiancée) actor and comedian Jay Schmidt to the panel!
The group pours out an eclectic assortment of beer, wine, tequila, and whiskey while Danny dishes about his pre-show prank, why everyone should see FUN HOME before it closes, and the process of bringing the "NY Spectacular" to life. Game Master Kimberly leads the group in the MASH-style "Gyspy ROWB," a "Spectacular" NYC-based Quiz, and a Lights of Broadway show cards taboo-style guessing game. The laughs keep coming--especially when Jay and Danny's hands are startlingly similar--so tune in and join us as we get Broadwaysted!
