04/03/17 • 30 min

You Guys! It was such a thrill to spend an afternoon chatting with the perfectly British and perfectly handsome and perfectly hilarious Michael Xavier. Currently starring opposite Glenn Close in Sunset Boulevard on Broadway, Michael is on loan to us from Mother England where he is one of the West End's biggest stars. With two Olivier nominations to his name, he's brought his charm and talent across the pond and is giving one of this season's most celebrated performances as Joe Gillis in one of Andrew Lloyd Webber's greatest works.

Rebecca Naomi Jones (Episode 103)

YOU GUYS!!! I've been pursuing this interview with Rebecca for YEARS! I'm totally obsessed. I first fell in love with this incredible woman in 2008 when I saw her in the Broadway production of "Passing Strange"--a show she'd been with since the 2007 production at The Public Theater. I fell even deeper in love with her when I saw her in 2010's "American Idiot," and, of course, I loved her in "Hedwig and the Angry Inch." And now she's making her play Broadway debut--yes, that's a thing--in the TERRIFIC "Significant Other." Sheeeeeeeeee's amazing! Enjoy!
