Betsy Joslyn

from Backstage Babble Hosted by cbroadwaypodcast

Today, I’m thrilled to announce my episode with Broadway veteran Betsy Joslyn. Tune in to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including why she crossed her eyes while singing “Green Finch and Linnet Bird” in SWEENEY TODD, preparing to go on at the last minute in THE GOODBYE GIRL, the many changes that were made to A DOLL’S LIFE, how she ended up with the final bow in INTO THE WOODS, a treasured piece of art from her time in THE FANTASTICKS, why she decided to leave the business after LES MIS, the kindness of Stacy Keach during CAMELOT, what she learned from Bernadette Peters and Angela Lansbury, playing cards during HIGH SOCIETY, her one performance in A FEW GOOD MEN, why you should never be funnier than Mel Brooks, how she convinced George Hearn to star in LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this conversation with one of Broadway’s best leading ladies.
