WATCH: TDF's 'Chicken & Biscuits' Conversation

Date: Oct 15, 2021

Communal laughter is healing, so it's no wonder that after 18 months of isolation, audiences are craving that experience more than ever. That's why Cleo King and Ebony Marshall-Oliver feel blessed to be starring in the new Broadway comedy Chicken & Biscuits at Circle in the Square Theatre. King and Marshall-Oliver play squabbling sisters in this romp set at a very dramatic Black family funeral. But despite their bickering, these characters deeply love each other—and the same goes for King and Marshall-Oliver offstage, too. TDF brought these hilarious ladies together for a tasty conversation about what makes them laugh, their go-to chicken and biscuits spots and how excited they are to be making their Broadway debuts in such a joyous show. If you weren't able to tune in live, you can watch a recording below. Captions are available.
