Summary

No one was more excited for Tony Nominee Jodie Comer’s big win at the Olivier Awards than her parents, who attended the afterparty and even got a free meal after bringing her trophy home to Liverpool. Her new one-woman Broadway show “Prima Facie,” is playing at The Golden Theater through July 2 (Original Air Date: April 5th, 2023). Next, John David Washington joins Stephen to discuss his starring role on Broadway in the August Wilson play, “The Piano Lesson,” and the pride he takes in delivering his lines the way they were originally written (Original Air Date: December 5th, 2022).
