Show People With Paul Wontorek

LAURA BENANTI is heading back to Broadway as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady. The Tony winner, social media maven and Melania Trump impersonator begins performances at the Vivian Beaumont Theater on October 23. This year marks 21 years since Benanti's Broadway debut. Her resume is full of dream roles, including Maria in The Sound of Music, Cinderella in Into the Woods and Louise in Gypsy, for which she won a Tony Award. Benanti, who is the mother of toddler Ella Rose, who is as vocal and assertive as her mother, says that being a parent is her true role of a lifetime. The Broadway favorite stopped by Show People with Paul Wontorek to talk about the post-partum challenges, getting close to Amy Schumer during Meteor Shower and much more.
