From Cyrano to Funny Girl: Tovah Feldshuh on Her 50-Year Broadway Career

This year, Tovah Feldshuh celebrates her 50th year on Broadway. And what better way to do that than to sit down with a Playbill binder from every Broadway show she’s ever done and share some anecdotes?

Follow along in this special deluxe episode of “My Life in the Theatre,” as Feldshuh explains how she initially wanted to be a concert pianist, and that time Will Swenson gave her mother a lap dance during “Hair.”
