Ep 160- Lainie Kazan, Legend of Stage & Screen Joins Us For A Retrospect Of An Iconic Career!

What an honor to spend time with the one and only Lainie Kazan! She held nothing back as we talk about a career that has included it all from Broadway to TV to Films to Vegas and Beyond! Lainie tells us about growing up in Brooklyn, the night she was supposed to go on for Streisand in "Funny Girl," her crossing over to TV, Film, and how she almost gave it all up til Hugh Hefner saved her?!? Plus we dish on how she was cast as the mom in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding!" Is there a more iconic role? Not in my mind! Lainie is just getting warmed up! Do not miss this history lesson in show biz! ______________________________________________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.
