"Literally Mother" with Jenn Colella

Dylan and Connor are joined by Jenn Colella (Come From Away, If/Then). We’re SHAKING to have this legendary icon on the podcast to promote her upcoming cabaret at 54 Below and to chat about her incredible life and career. Jenn dishes on motherhood, marriage, and being “mostly gay.” Jenn mentions it ALL — getting a tattoo in Rob McClure’s dressing room during Chaplin, a wild night out with Antonio Banderas and friends, and covering Idina Menzel’s role in If/Then for one afternoon only (and which Tony-winning BOYFRIEND of hers attended the show). Getting high and seeing Into the Woods with Bobby Conte, auditioning for Marianne Elliot’s Company (in a surprising role!), and performing Fun Home in a funeral home. Y’all… this episode has the tea, the stories, and MORE. We get into Heated Rivalry, Industry, Dying for Sex, and of course… Come From Away.

The twins unite with Justin to talk all things Spelling Bee, which is currently running through September at New World Stages. We get into the herstory of the Bee, modernizing it for today’s audience, and the fun of working with the incredible cast on this hilarious show. Lilli Cooper’s vocals, performance, and wig are all raved about. Justin burst onto the scene in Kimberly Akimbo, garnering him a nomination for every theatrical award on the planet. He looks back on the show that brought him to the city, what it was like joining the Broadway community at 18 years old, and taking his dad to the Tony Awards. Actual Ring of Keys happens during Ring of Keys. GAG IT. Stick around for commentary about Normal People by Sally Rooney, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and Bad Bunny’s halftime show.

Special memories from the Broadway experience are shared, including some fabulous celebrity encounters, fan interactions, and lessons learned from Hester. Jak shares never-before-told stories about his early days falling in love with the arts. Pantos, grandmothers, and doggies, oh my! We talk Phantom of the Opera, Masquerade, Grey Gardens, Love Story, and a little Nicole Scherzinger. Why not!
