Broadway powerhouse Betsy Wolfe is no stranger to the vlogging game, having previously hosted the series “Sugar, Butter, Betsy” for Broadway.com during her stint as Jenna in Waitress. On January 16, the Tony nominee will join the Broadway cast of Death Becomes Her as mortality-defying screen siren Madeline Ashton. To commemorate the run, Wolfe will be Broadway.com's latest vlogger. The new series, “Death Becomes Betsy: Backstage at Death Becomes Her With Betsy Wolfe,” will run for six weeks.
Entrepreneur and QVC icon Joy Mangano is the subject of the new off-Broadway musical “Joy.”
This true story follows Joy as she overcomes financial struggles to ultimately build a business empire — and it all starts with her creation of the Miracle Mop.
This summer Betsy Wolfe has stepped into the role of businesswoman and inventor Joy Mangano, the woman who gave the world the Miracle Mop. “You know,” Wolfe told Tamsen Fadal on The Broadway Show, “I've been jokingly saying, ‘Mop girl summer. Get ready for it.’” But, Wolfe hastens to add, Joy: A New True Musical, now in previews at the Laura Pels Theatre, is much more than a musical about a self-wringing cleaning implement. “What I think will really surprise people is that this is a story about three generations of women. The story of family is what is at its core.”
JOY: A New True Musical—led by & Juliet Tony nominee Betsy Wolfe as Miracle Mop inventor Joy Mangano—began previews June 21 at the Laura Pels Theatre at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre. Check out photos from the first curtain call and more in the gallery below.
