In this week's edition, we caught up with Jennifer Smith who is starring in A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder- currently playing at the Walter Kerr Theatre.

What is the first Broadway show you ever saw?

ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY starring Judy Kaye. I recently stood by for her in NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT.

What is your most unique pre-show ritual?

I hug Stage Manager Rachel Zack. I call it the Zack attack.

What is your most memorable "the show must go on" moment?

I broke my wrist during "Springtime for Hitler" in THE PRODUCERS. The number is in the middle of Act 2 so there was no time to put on a swing. I finished the show with my hand carefully draped across my chest.

What is the one role you want to play before you die?

A role that I originate in a new show!

Who is your Broadway crush?

Jefferson Mayes!

Where can people stalk you online?

I hope nobody is bored enough to want to stalk me!!
