“The Pace of Grace” with Adrianna Hicks

Connor and Dylan are joined by Adrianna Hicks (Some Like It Hot, Six). One of Broadway’s HOTTEST leading ladies joins the twins for an encompassing chat all about her life and career. We discuss all things Sugar Kane in the new Broadway musical Some Like It Hot. We chat about the inspiration for her interpretation of the character made famous by Marilyn Monroe, cut songs by Shaiman & Wittman, and how she’s finding balance. From Beyonce’s influence on Catherine of Aragon to what it was like being in the Queendom, Adrianna recounts her journey with Six. We also touch on the Tony-winning revival of The Color Purple, acting alongside “sisters” Jennifer Hudson, Heather Headley, and Jennifer Holliday as Shug Avery, performing in Germany (and learning the language), and her hopes and dreams for what’s next.
