Season 2: Episode 22: Dorothy Lyman: Playwright, Actress, Director, Mama's Family, All My Children, The Nanny, Fran Drescher, We Have To Hurry
From All My Children to Mama's Family, I'm beyond excited to be catching up with two-time Emmy Award Winner Dorothy Lyman whose new virtual play, We Have To Hurry starring Alfred Molina will be streaming June 5th & 6th, 2021 on Broadway on Demand.
Dorothy & I talk about her legendary career in television, including how Fran Drescher gave Dorothy a directing career, branching out from acting to playwriting and much more!
Dorothy won two Emmy Awards for her iconic portrayal of "Opal Gardner" on ABC's All My Children (1982 & 1983) & is widely known for playing "Naomi Harper" on Mama's Family which ran from 1983-1990. Dorothy also directed 75 consecutive episodes of Fran Drescher's hit show The Nanny.
We Have To Hurry streams at Broadway On Demand on June 5th, 2021 (8pm) & June 6th, 2021 (3pm).
The play will stream on a monthly basis with a rotating cast of stars.
