Latest / Broadway Bound: The Musicals That Never Came to Broadway
BEA ARTHUR in A Mother's Kisses
Bea Arthur spent her career playing women who could level a grown man with a single look. So naturally she starred in A Mother's Kisses, a musical about a stage mother so terrifying she makes Mama Rose look like Maria Von Trapp.
This week, we explore the show that seemed perfectly suited to Bea's talents and ask a simple question: can a star be too right for a role?
Along the way, we'll uncover a musical that wasn't really about Broadway at all—it was about what happens when nobody in the room is willing to blink first.
