I like this extended interview with Sutton.

[@ernlwjr2]

I like her even more after this interview!

[@maninchair6648]

Awesome content , hope we'll see some more "Show People" shows , I loved the in depth interviews with the lovely Broadway people.

Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster are the perfect choice casting for The Music Man! 😃

[@SteveBrant55]

I just saw The Music Man this past Tuesday... another time they raised money for Broadway Cares! She was fantastic, as was Hugh and everyone in the cast! Thank you for this great in-depth interview. I feel like I really know her now!

[@EduardoPerez-tl1pk]

Getting to see her live earlier this month was literally a dream come true for me :))

[@carolynmuckle9812]

Me too! Seeing her and Hugh live was incredible!!

[@ihavealwaysbeenatheaterner3736]

Same! Saw it may 14th and it was MIND BLOWING

[@michelebartlett3921]

I fell in love with her when she had the short lived TV Series Bunheads....it blossomed from there. I love ALL of her work but her musicals are where she shines the brightest

[@astonewithnomoss]

I wish we could see Sutton play Harold Hill and Hugh play Marion. I think that would be incredible.

[@michaelevans7582]

Would you also want to see Clark Gable play Scarlett and Vivien Leigh play Rhett? This sounds weird and pointless to me. I am not likely to get to NY to see this revival, but I don't think the original Broadway recording or the 1962 movie will ever be beaten.

[@astonewithnomoss]

@@michaelevans7582 you seem weirdly offended by the idea of actors playing different roles? I was picturing Sutton and Hugh doing a role switch at MCC Miscast, so Sutton could be a roguish, cheeky Harold Hill with all those fun fast-paced songs, and Hugh could be a more uptight and reserved Marion and belt out a ballad (we already know how good he is at that!). Honestly, yes if I could see Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh role switch that would be awesome. I think that's one of the greatest joys of film and theatre - when you get to see the unexpected and the delightful! Like when Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller alternated the roles of Frankenstein and the creature every night.

I never noticed before, but Sutton and Olivia Colman could play family.

LOVE this interview! Sutton 💕

The winter garden I love that theatre I’ve never been in it but hopefully one day I will get to see it

[@brianeduardo1234]

Paul’s hair is much much better the way he has it now

[@misled1982]

I got "hooked" with Suton after eatchinh her 2012 Tony performance of Anything goes, you can see how talented she is and yet still so humble and down to earth, I wish someday I get to see her live!

[@DDumbrille]

WHAT?

[@michelebartlett3921]

@@DDumbrille The cast of "Anything Goes", starring Sutton Foster, performed the title song "Anything Goes" at the Tony's in 2012. It was a great performance

Crafting really can help you come to a healthier place in your life. Her mother was a very disturbed woman. Very.

[@robrivax]

Very thoughtful interview....

[@rarnayro]

Paul Wontorek looks great!!!!

[@anyagetman8596]

They are dating now.

[@sarahmyers4810]

[@janeoleary8454]

F the masks

[@jpdemer5]

F those too stubborn or stupid to wear them.

[@Fidgetym42]

Definitely. Next time you have surgery, be sure to tell the doctors and nurses not to wear their masks.
