Tony Award winner Cynthia Erivo was all smiles when she paid a visit to “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” on July 28th.

The comedian and host of the satirical news show on Comedy Central spent a portion of the interview fanboying over Erivo’s stunning portrayal of Celie in The Color Purple.

They continued to discuss the audiences’ reactions to the show, Erivo’s nerves on Tony night, and her many interactions with Oprah Winfrey, the musical’s producer, and original onscreen-Celie Whoopi Goldberg.

Having already seen the musical in January, Noah confessed that her acting was so convincing he didn’t realize she was a UK girl coming over to the US “to play a Southern girl,” thus prompting Erivo to sample some Southern twang.

Rumor has it Erivo wished to play one of the male roles in the Broadway smash Hamilton, a leap she isn’t opposed to. In addition, she’d like to see Tony winner Leslie Odom, Jr., who plays Aaron Burr until July 9th, as Celie.

They discussed the culture shock of the disparity of roles in the US vs. UK, with Erivo revealing there’s more of an opportunity to try new things than in London. “Brexit will help with that,” quipped Noah.

They went into depth about Brexit, and Erivo described her Nigerian-born parents, her mother’s move to the UK, as well as her childhood.

Noah wrapped up the interview by asking Erivo, “Are you crazy?” in awe of her ability to run a half-marathon, perform two shows, and her intense workout schedule.

Erivo challenged Noah to an arm-wrestling contest — naturally, she obliterated him.

“The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” airs weeknights on Comedy Central at 11 PM ET.

The Color Purple currently plays at the Jacobs Theatre.

I will start this off by saying, CAN SOMEONE WRITE JENIFER LEWIS HER OWN BROADWAY SHOW?

We are lucky to be in a Broadway season that is filled with diverse stories, and a time where social media reigns. Without the two of these things, we might have blocked our blessing by missing Jenifer Lewis sing and slay #InTheseStreets with the cast of Shuffle Along.

Yes, you heard me correctly, Jennifer Lewis and the cast of Shuffle Along SLAYING the hilarious impromptu #InTheseStreets. A song that was originally sung with Brandy and Roz Ryan.

The visit doesn’t just end with Ms. Lewis sharing stories of how the song originated or showing off her dancing skills. Lewis also spent time backstage to offer words of wisdom.

After singing their praises she asked if the cast was happy, which they all replied enthusiastically yes. “Do me a favor,” she says. “This is nice and all, but take care of each other.” Simple, yet important advice I think can be applied to anything really.

While Broadway is known for its great spectacle underneath it all is a family.  A community that needs every single person to be doing their job to the best of their ability. It’s not a one-person show, it’s a collaborative effort to ensure they are putting on the best possible show out there.

Jenifer Lewis got her start on Broadway fresh out of college in the production of Eubie! It means even more to her, we’re sure, to see a show that, in part, pays tribute to the rise of Eubie Blake. She also saw Book of Mormon this same day. Lewis was last seen as Motormouth Maybelle in Hairspray on the Broadway stage.
