Episode 15: Tonya Pinkins

Patrick Hinds and Mike Jensen
The Tony Award winner talks making her Broadway debut in the infamous Stephen Sondheim musical flop "Merrily We Roll Along," creating the role of Caroline in the Tony-nominated and Olivier Award-winning "Caroline, or Change," and why she was compelled to come back to Broadway this season in "Holler If Ya Hear Me," the mostly rapped-through musical featuring the music, lyrics, and poetry of Tupac Shakur.
