"Finding Her Grail" with Leslie Rodriguez Kritzer
Dylan and Connor are joined by 2024 Tony Award nominee Leslie Rodriguez Kritzer (Spamalot, Beetlejuice). This beloved musical theatre comedienne sat down for a hilarious, insightful, and genuine look into her career so far. Connor and Dylan don’t shy away from asking all about their favorite of Leslie’s credits, including Legally Blonde, Hairspray, Beetlejuice, and Something Rotten. Of course they get into the recent revival of Monty Python’s Spamalot, where Leslie’s improv, belting, and musical theatre chops came together in her portrayal of Lady of the Lake. Leslie shares heartwarming memories of her late mother, as well as the story of nearly starring in the Funny Girl Broadway revival that never was. The dolls rave about Nicole Scherzinger’s upcoming Broadway turn, Leslie’s friendship with Michelle Visage, and a full circle story about Faith Prince. They get all the deets about Lady of the Lake: The Farewell Tour on June 5 at Joe’s Pub, and the companion video series (viewable on Leslie’s Instagram) in the wake of being nominated for a Tony Award. Gagged! They tease recent show-goings to Illinoise, Water for Elephants, and Stereophonic in this fabulous chat. We love Leslie and can’t wait to have her back for part 2!
