WATCH: A 'Forbidden Broadway' TDF Conversation

Date: Sep 06, 2024

Personable impersonators Jenny Lee Stern and Chris Collins-Pisano on the joys of spoofing Broadway

---

Forbidden Broadway has been skewering Broadway shows and stars since 1982. That tradition continues this fall with the latest edition of the long-running musical parody revue, written as always by Gerard Alessandrini. Jenny Lee Stern and Chris Collins-Pisano are longtime cast members, crack comedic impressionists who channel divas of all ages and genders, including Patti LuPone, Angela Lansbury, Shaina Taub, Bernadette Peters, Ben Platt, Roger Bart, Josh Groban and even Stephen Sondheim. We brought these costars together to chat about how they got into the impersonation game, their encounters with the celebs they imitate and their best non-theatre impressions. If you weren't able to tune in live you can watch a recording below. Captions are available.
