Jenni Barber on Wicked Fan Art & Why She Models Her Glinda After Nathan Lane

first_img Did you see The Nance screening in movie theaters this summer? I did, we had a great premiere. It was wonderful to see everybody again. We hadn’t seen each other in about a year, so that was really special. There’s so much that we don’t get to see when we’re onstage. We don’t get to see the lighting design or the way all the costumes work together. Wicked fans are so loyal—what’s the best fan gift you’ve gotten? I’ve gotten some incredible art. This show inspires people to just put their heart out there. They make duct tape art, they do watercolors, they do sculpture art, it’s incredible. I got this thing from Iceland, this incredible paper art of Glinda, it was really special. But nothing crazy. No one’s sent me their tooth or anything, thank god. [Laughs.] Who in particular have you bonded with? Christine Dwyer, who plays Elphaba. I love her so much. We’ve become really close and she’s such an ally on stage. I’m also obsessed with Mary Testa! She’s amazing, she’s a comedic genius, honestly. I’ve gotta take as many notes as possible working with her: she’s a real legend, and she’s also a blast. I love everybody, we’re all really tight. Jenni Barber You actually ask yourself, “How would Nathan Lane play Glinda?” Absolutely, or say, “No, Nathan Lane would not approve of this, nuh-uh.” It’s bizarre, but it works! from $95.00 What about your money from the dentist? Yeah, I was like, “I’m out of my dentist cash, I’ve got to take this job!” [Laughs.] Aside from Mary Testa, do you have any comedy influences you look up to that inspire your performance? I had the pleasure of working with Nathan Lane last year in The Nance, and watching him work an audience is the greatest lesson in comedy anybody could ever have. His rhythm and the way that he can time things, the way that he’ll change it up. Every performance is different and really crafted to whatever he’s getting from the audience. There’s moments where I’m doing “Popular” and I’m like, “What would Nathan Lane do?” See Barber in Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre. Related Shows You now have a few months of Wicked under your belt. How do you like being “Popular?” It’s going really well, it’s super fun, we’re having a great time. I’m really lucky I have just the coolest cast to be a part of. We’re really having fun over there! You got to perform on the Tony Awards this year—did your phone immediately start blowing up? Yes, both Christine’s and my phones went bananas. We told our families, but we didn’t tell a lot of people, and I’m not on Facebook, so literally my phone was freaking out. Christine’s actually broke. [Laughs.] It was really thrilling. And so many people from years ago were like, “Wait a second, what are you doing? You live in New York, you’re on Broadway, what?”center_img I’m still mourning the loss of the hilarious porn play The Performers, which closed after only 30 performances on Broadway. Yay, you saw it! View Comments What’s it like to see yourself so big on a movie screen? My head was super big and it was hilarious. There’s…a lot happening! [Laughs.] It’s also gonna be on TV in October, and I’m so thrilled that so many people are gonna be able to see this story. What has been your most memorable stage door interaction? My dentist from when I was a child in Mansfield, Ohio was at the stage door a couple weeks ago. I haven’t seen her in years, but when I was first moving to New York, I had my last checkup and she literally handed me a wad of cash and was like, “Just take care of yourself, OK?” She was so worried about me moving to the big city! I haven’t seen her since that day, and then she shows up at the stage door crying. When did you see Wicked for the first time? When I first moved to the city I auditioned, and they told me I was going to leave in a week to be in the Chicago production. I had never seen the show before, so I sat in the sound booth and saw Megan Hilty and Shoshanna Bean and they were fantastic. A few days later they were like, “Oh, you’re not going to Chicago, but they may want you to stay here.” So it was this epic month of callbacks and during that time I was also auditioning for Spelling Bee and ended up getting that before they made a decision for Wicked. I needed it so bad, I was so broke. I had spent three months in New York and I had no money. Star Files You’ve played such an eclectic mix of roles, from Olive in Spelling Bee to an adult film star, to a burlesque performer. If a project is exciting for me, then I’ll just go out for it, but these roles really did choose me. [Spelling Bee and Annie director] James Lapine was a little concerned. He said, “You were Olive and now I’m seeing you without your clothes on. Why don’t you play a nice, respectful lady like Grace Farrell in [Annie]?” He was trying to clean up my act! Wicked Why don’t you think it got the run it deserved? At the theater, we talked about this relentlessly, because we were so surprised we got the closing notice so quickly. I can’t even tell you how much fun it was. Henry Winkler, Alicia [Silverstone], Cheyenne [Jackson], Daniel Breaker, Ari [Graynor], they’re most wonderful castmates a person could have. I learned a lot about commercial theater in New York City, that’s for sure. Try as you might, you simply can’t typecast Jenni Barber. The star made her Broadway debut as shy middle schooler Olive Ostrovsky in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee and nabbed a regular gig on the kids’ TV series The Electric Company before moving on to more uh, adult fare, like a porn star in the short-lived comedy The Performers and a burlesque performer in The Nance on Broadway. Now she’s throwing us another curveball: She arrived on the Great White Way via bubble in Wicked last winter, playing oh-so-popular witch Glinda. Broadway.com chatted with Barber about her first few months in the role, what it’s like to perform on the Tony Awards and why she’s constantly asking herself “What would Nathan Lane do?”last_img read more

MBB : Boeheim disappointed in recent play of SU’s 4 veterans

first_img Published on January 25, 2011 at 12:00 pm Comments Unprompted by any question, Jim Boeheim took time out of his postgame press conference to make something clear.Boeheim felt the need to remind everyone that his Syracuse basketball program lost three great players from last season’s squad. And that although this year’s Orange has four veterans who are left to shoulder the load, they haven’t done so on a consistent basis. That those four — Rick Jackson, Kris Joseph, Scoop Jardine and Brandon Triche — left a lot to be desired Tuesday.‘Not good college players,’ Boeheim said, referring to last year’s star trio of Wes Johnson, Andy Rautins and Arinze Onuaku. ‘Great college players.‘Scoop and Ricky and Kris and Brandon, they have not played like they did earlier in the year. We’ve got to get them playing better.’And just about anything would have been better than Tuesday’s performance, which led to the worst home loss for Syracuse in more than a decade. Seton Hall’s veteran starters came into the Carrier Dome and got the better of the No. 9 team in the nation, just 17 days after the Orange won at SHU.AdvertisementThis is placeholder textAlthough all four key players for SU finished the game in double figures scoring-wise, they failed to guide Syracuse out of its recent losing streak.‘At the end of the day, it’s on us, the leaders, the veterans on this team, to make a difference,’ Joseph said. ‘We knew coming in that this is what we would have to do.’Syracuse is in the midst of a three-game tailspin after one of the best starts to a season in school history. Throughout an eight-minute press conference after the game, Boeheim kept returning to one theme: the play of his four veterans. It’s those four, Boeheim said, who need to lead SU out of its current funk.‘For us to win, we have to be balanced,’ Boeheim said. ‘For us to have balance, Brandon and Scoop have to play to the level that they played earlier in the year. Those guys are crucial for us.’Against the Pirates Tuesday, the quartet did what it could. Jackson finished with a double-double and an impressive six blocked shots. Joseph finished with a team-high 17 points, and Jardine and Triche each chipped in 11 points apiece. Yet it still wasn’t enough.Inefficiency on both sides of the ball sunk the Orange against a team it was heavily favored to beat.Boeheim said it wasn’t the defense — which allowed SHU to knock down its first seven shots of the game — that worried him. Early on, it was the Orange’s offensive cohesiveness. In each half, Syracuse struggled to get on the board. With four players averaging double figures, that’s something that shouldn’t happen. Especially at home against an unranked team.The 34 percent shooting mark from the field in the first half from the veteran group coincided with a 13-point halftime advantage for Seton Hall. Joseph scored 16 of his points in the second half, but that was after the Pirates jumped out to a 50-30 lead. The damage had already been done.‘We can’t come out slow,’ Triche said. ‘If we have to come from behind, we’re going to spend too much energy, and we’re probably going to run out of gas toward the end of the game. … Our starters have to play better earlier.’It’s not a concept the Orange has failed to embrace. The leaders of this year’s Syracuse team know it’s on them to return to the form that allowed SU to reel off 18 consecutive wins to start the season. Boeheim knows the four veterans on this year’s team have it in them. This is the same Syracuse team that was ranked No. 3 in the nation just a week ago.But 21 games into the season, the head coach is still reminiscent of the veteran leadership of last year’s team. Leadership that, in SU’s past three games, has been lacking.‘The teams that are winning have upperclass players, every one of them,’ Boeheim said. ‘Every one of them has four or five upperclass veteran players. Our four veteran players have got us to where we are, with a little bit of assistance some games.‘Those four guys have to be there every night. They have to be there every night for us.’aljohn@syr.educenter_img Facebook Twitter Google+last_img read more
