“Spittin’ Bars with the Bard” with Gabby Beans

Connor and Dylan are joined by Tony Award nominee Gabby Beans (Romeo + Juliet, The Skin of Our Teeth). If the end is right it justifies... the Gabby Beans of course! Listen in as this fiercely talented star of Romeo + Juliet on Broadway sat down with the twins for a little DRAMA. Gabby opens up about playing the dual roles of Mercutio and the Friar in this Sam Gold-helmed revival. She raves about the leading players of Rachel Zegler and Kit Connor, and teases the cast rap battles happening before the audience's very eyes onstage. Gabby reflects on her high school days in Germany, pursuing Neuroscience AND Theatre while at Columbia, and growing up as an army brat. She brings us back to her Tony-nominated turn in The Skin of Our Teeth at Lincoln Center, and the experience of being nominated alongside extraordinary women in her category. Trust, we chat about Jake Gyl, “Presumed Innocent,” and her aptly-named bob in the Apple TV+ series. How does this Shakespearean star spend her off days? What shows are on rotation for Gabby? Settle in for this terrific chat, which also includes chatter about Conclave, Anora, Sally Rooney’s latest novel, and more. See Gabby Beans in Romeo + Juliet through February 16!

“The I Word” with Megan Hilty

Connor and Dylan are joined by Megan Hilty (Death Becomes Her, NBC’s Smash) to celebrate 5 YEARS of DRAMA. You’re gagged. We’re gagged. Everyone is gagged for the queen Megan Hilty, who is finally back on Broadway, starring in Death Becomes Her. She’s doing it “For The Gaze,” y’all. The twins of course dive into every possible topic you’re hoping for: what it’s like creating Madeline Ashton for the stage, how Megan’s dressing room is coming along (as designed by friend of the pod Krysta Rodriguez), and the joys of working with the fabulous Jennifer Simard and the whole cast of DBH. Don’t worry, as one of Wicked’s first and most beloved Glindas, they get the dish on creating her own Glinda the Good, what she remembers most from those days, and the Hilty High Note rumors. They get into 9 to 5, being Tony nominated for Noises Off, and of course... starring as Ivy Lynn in Smash on NBC. Stick around for LOTS of Housewives and Below Deck talk with fellow Bravoholic Megan Hilty. You are going to love all of that and more in this fabulous chat with Megan Hilty. Happy 5 years of DRAMA!
