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!!
