Spend a Day With Kinky Boots Cast Member Ellyn Marsh

We’ve all wondered what a day in the life of a Broadway star is like. But what about the thankless hoofers in the ensemble that kill it onstage eight times a week without having flowers thrown at their feet?

Ellyn Marsh, dedicated ensemble player of the Tony Award-winning musical Kinky Boots, offered TheaterMania a behind-the-scenes look at one of her matinee days at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre. Aside from terrorizing the musical’s youngest cast members, sneaking into Billy Porter’s dressing room, and assaulting Broadway celebrities, Marsh proves that a life on the Great White Way is just like any other.
