The hilarious Jackie Hoffman was on Broadway in Hairspray (in multiple roles) before she became a noted TV character actor, a fact that caused her tsuris on Tony night.
As Jackie posted on Instagram, “I just saw a picture of [Hairspray co-conspirators] Kerry Butler, Mathew Morrison, and Marc Shaiman on the Tony Awards red carpet while I’m drinking booze with bugs in it.”Fame—ain’t it a bitch?But Jackie would be perfect to play 1920s singer/comic Fanny Brice’s mother in the upcoming revival of Funny Girl starring Beanie Feldstein, right?
