Most recently she was seen Off-Broadway in the Hamilton spoof, Spamilton. Pedi is known for her YouTube Broadway themed parody videos, her long association with Forbidden Braodway (Drama Desk nomination), and as the host of the daily show "ON BROADWAY" on Sirius XM Radio.

NEWSical was featured on Jackson's reality TV show "Life with La Toya" on the OWN Network in 2014. For its 2,500 performance the show received a Mayoral and Senate proclamation naming May 23rd, 2017 NEWSical The Musical Day in New York City..
