Today, I’m so excited to announce my episode with star of stage and screen Leslie Uggams. Leslie’s new movie Dotty & Soul is now out on all streaming platforms. Tune in today to hear her talk about how meaningful the part of Dotty is to, as well as tell stories about her Broadway career, including taking acting lessons with Stella Adler and Sal Mineo, her early friendship with Ethel Waters, talking to Arthur Laurents about the role of Madame Rose, why Her First Roman wasn’t successful, dealing with Carol Channing's allergies, reading Hallelujah, Baby! while David Merrick fell asleep, and so much more. You won't want to miss this illuminating conversation with a legend of the stage.
