DRAMA. with Connor & Dylan MacDowell19 Helmi 2025

“An Audience with the Queen” with Lesli Margherita

Dylan and Connor are joined by Olivier Award-winner Lesli Margherita (Gypsy, Matilda). The Queen has arrived, y’all. Lesli is starring in Gypsy on Broadway, where she’s making audiences hoot, holler, and gag eight shows a week as Tessie Tura. Hear about the twins’ experience at the show, Lesli’s personal history with it, and how she took a “big swing” to get George C. Wolfe to notice her self tape audition. Everyone loves Queen Lesli and you’re going to fall even deeper for this diva. Hear about her love of Star Wars (Storm Troopers and light sabers at her wedding? Hello!), how she keeps herself busy during act one of Gypsy, and her dreamy West End theatre experience in Zorro. Did we mention she won an Olivier? She gushes over co-stars Audra McDonald and Danny Burstein, shares tales from Matilda’s innovative transfer from London, and reflects on her most cherished theatrical experiences… which you’ll have to listen to find out about. Stick around for RuPaul’s Drag Race chatter, TikTok hackings, Bad Sisters and Summer House, and MORE. You cannot miss Lesli as Tessie Tura. You’ll regret it for the rest of your LIFE. Let us entertain you!
