Dylan and Connor are joined by Grace Hodgett Young (Sunset Blvd, Hadestown). Ahead of her final weekend of performances in the Tony-winning revival of Sunset Blvd, Grace sits down with the twins for a thrilling exit interview for the ages. We cover: auditioning for the ensemble, getting cast as Betty Schaeffer, why Grace initially passed on the New York transfer, and what her Broadway highlights have been. We of course dive into all things Nicole Scherzinger, including our favorite YouTube videos and X Factor judging iconography from the Tony Award-winning diva. Don’t worry, we ask what Grace has learned from her New York experience, what it’s like working with heartthrob co-stars Tom Francis and Diego Andres Rodriguez, and her favorite onstage moments in Jamie Lloyd’s Sunset. Hadestown fans will be thrilled to hear tea about that West End production, the cast, and what songs she loved singing nightly. Moments from Mountview, growing up in Nottingham, and living her Gossip Girl NYC fantasy are all on the pod. Don’t miss Grace in Sunset Blvd through this weekend only!
