Sofia chats with the SPECTACULAR Beth Malone (Fun Home, Angels in America, The Unsinkable Molly Brown, Ring of Fire, Bingo, The Marvelous Wonderettes)!!! Beth is best known on Broadway for originating the role of Alison Bechdel in the revolutionary musical Fun Home, for which she earned a Tony nomination for Best Leading Actress in a Musical, and has starred as Molly Brown in various regional productions of The Unsinkable Molly Brown.

Beth most recently starred as the Angel in the 2018 Broadway revival of Angels in America. Beth and I discuss her experience of portraying Alison in Fun Home, her genderbent dream roles (they involve Steve Martin and Georges Seurat), her adventures in hair-dying, why she wants to be a rock star, adjusting to New York City life after living in Castle Rock, Colorado and much more! Beth is truly one of the sweetest humans ever, and it was incredible to hear about her journey in show business and specifically with Fun Home.
