This week, Les chats with Stephanie Hsu. You saw her recently as Mei on 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,' as well as Hulu’s cult drama 'The Path,' and MTV’s 'Girl Code'. We talk particularly about a project very special to her, 'THE LIZ SWADOS PROJECT,' an album of songs by American writer, composer, musician, and theatre director Elizabeth Swados.
We'll open the show today a little differently then, with a song before the interview. “In This My Green World” is performed by Stephanie Hsu, with Preston Martin, (from the play Alice in Concert, 1980 – music by Elizabeth Swados, lyrics by Kenneth Patchen from his poem). Check it out!
