Bea excited! Heidi Blickenstaff is the latest Broadway fave to show us the glitz and glamour of the Great White Way. Look out for Renaissance Woman: Backstage at Something Rotten! with Heidi Blickenstaff!
Blickenstaff, who plays Bea in the musical comedy, will grab a camera and give us a glimpse of backstage life at the St. James Theatre, where she throws on a beard, puts on “A musical” and...something involving eggs. Expect appearances from her hysterical co-stars, including Brian d’Arcy James, John Cariani, Brad Oscar, Kate Reinders and the bard himself: Tony winner Christian Borle.
Before Something Rotten!, Blickenstaff appeared on Broadway in The Addams Family, [title of show] (in which she played—get this—Heidi), The Little Mermaid and The Full Monty. She works hard and plays harder: this spring she celebrated her Broadway opening by getting married the very next day.
Renaissance Woman begins on July 23 and will run every Thursday for eight weeks.
