Daniel Radcliffe on his Broadway hit 'Merrily We Roll Along'
In light of Sunday's Tony Awards, WNYC is revisiting some of the conversations we've had with people doing exciting work on Broadway.
Well, everything. It flopped. Audiences left during intermission, and it closed within two weeks. Sondheim and Prince didn't work together for years. Lindsay Mendez stars as Mary, a once-celebrated novelist turned theater critic turned alcoholic, who's always been in love with Frank. The play starts in Los Angeles at the height of Frank's fame and, in some ways, pain. His real friends can't stand him. He can't stand himself.
As opposed to Charley, Dan's character, and Mary saying more like, "Don't sell out. Only do the work that inspires you and that says something and that means something." How about you, Daniel? When you could have stayed in a much more commercial vein, you've made some interesting choices that it's a little meta in the show in a moment or two.
