Wednesday Trivia Question

Who was nominated for a Primetime Emmy for her role as Mrs. Lovett in SWEENEY TODD: THE DEMON BARBER OF FLEET STREET on LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER?

LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER has run on PBS since 1976 and has featured performances by Luciano Pavarotti, Kristin Chenoweth, Audra McDonald, Nathan Lane, Josh Groban, Renee Fleming and many more. The series has showcased symphonies, musicals, opening nights, festivals, concerts and operas.

In September 2014, LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER broadcast the Sondheim musical SWEENEY TODD: THE DEMON BARBER OF FLEET STREET with Bryn Terfel in the title role. But the actress in the role of Mrs. Lovett earned an Emmy nod for her performance.
