Stephanie Pope

Today, I’m thrilled to present my episode with triple threat Stephanie Pope. Tune in to hear some of the stories of her fantastic career, including her long collaboration with Bob Fosse, from her first audition for SWEET CHARITY to her conversations with him on the day that he died, why she was hounded by press during THE WILL ROGERS FOLLIES, what made her decide to recreate her role in JELLY’S LAST JAM, doing research for her role in A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM, going on at the last minute for Patina Miller in PIPPIN, how the pandemic led her to start directing, premiering SMOKEY JOE’S CAFE in London, going on the road with her daughter in THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE, announcing Gwen Verdon’s death from the stage during FOSSE, studying dance while attending high school, standing by for Chita Rivera in KISS OF THE SPIDERWOMAN, how she aimed to leave the door open for fellow Black performers, and so much more.
