DRAMA. with Connor & Dylan MacDowell9 Okt 2024

“My Natural Gremlin” with Helen J Shen

Dylan and Connor are joined by Helen J Shen (Maybe Happy Ending, The Lonely Few). The star of this season’s newest original Broadway musical, Maybe Happy Ending, kicks off spooky season with your favorite twins. On a cozy fall night after Helen’s rehearsals, they hear all about the innovative show. Does co-starring with Darren Criss mean he spills on-set secrets from Glee and American Crime Story? Find out all of that PLUS the origins of the musical, working with Michael Arden, and thoughts about moving into the haunted Belasco Theatre. Spooookyyyyyy. We also dive into Helen’s relationship with Andrew Barth Feldman (currently starring in Little Shop of Horrors). She spills on how they met and how their love blossomed during lockdown. They also share stories from the University of Michigan, performing in Teeth and The Lonely Few, and a little Rainbow Fish and Finding Nemo chatter. Stick around for recommendations on Andrew Rannells’ latest book, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and our excitement about Gypsy casting. Take a Tumblr into this episode and get stoked for Helen in Maybe Happy Ending!
