Former Miss America Vanessa William made her Broadway debut in 1994 as the title role in “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” Seated at the piano during rehearsals was a musician named Seth Rudetsky.
Years later, she had become a multiplatinum recording artist and star of television, film, and stage. He was an Emmy-nominated writer, composer, and popular host on Sirius/XM’s Broadway channel. They were placed near each other at a wedding. “We were like chitty chat, chitty chat,” Seth remembers. He then said, “I do these really fun concerts, where instead of doing scripted patter, I get to interview you in between each song. It's really spontaneous.” Vanessa said, “Sure. Yeah!” And they’ve been doing these shows together ever since.
The friends join The Revolución podcast co-hosts Linda Lane González, Diego Lastra, Kathryn Garcia Castro, and Court Stroud to chat about the 2022 Tony Awards, their careers, LGBTQ Pride Month, and their upcoming concert in New York City's Town Hall.
