Dame Edna Everage, currently starring on Broadway in All About Me, joins the ladies of The View as a guest co-host. The show airs at 11am EST on ABC.
Dame Edna is the lavender-haired comic creation of Melbourne-born actor and writer Barry Humphries, who has appeared on Broadway in Dame Edna: The Royal Tour (winner of a special Tony Award in 2000) and Dame Edna: Back with a Vengeance (nominated for a Best Special Theatrical Event Tony in 2005). The character has headlined a pair of talk shows (notably The Dame Edna Experience) and appeared often onstage in London and around the world. Humphries made his Broadway debut in 1963 in Oliver!
