Broadway Brilliance: A Candid Conversation with Tony-Nominee Natasha Yvette Williams

In this captivating interview, we sit down with the remarkable Natasha Yvette Williams, a rising star whose talent has been shining on Broadway for the past few years. She recently took the stage by storm in the hit musical "Some Like It Hot," wowing audiences with her show-stopping performance of "What Are You Thirsty For?" Not only did she shine during Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, but she also made her mark on the Original Broadway Cast Album, leaving listeners eager for more.

Natasha's journey to success has been steady and impressive. From her standout roles as replacements in iconic productions like "Tina: The Tina Turner Musical," "Waitress," and "A Night with Janis Joplin," to her unforgettable performances in "The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess" revival and "Chicago," she has proven herself as a force to be reckoned with. Her portrayal of Mama Morton and the creation of the character Brianna in "Chicken & Biscuits" have further solidified her reputation as a versatile and talented performer.

Now, in her breakout role in "Some Like it Hot," Natasha is garnering rave reviews from critics and audiences alike. The New York Times describes her as a powerhouse, delivering unforgettable jazz numbers that leave a lasting impression. Variety praises her vocals and comedic timing, while Entertainment Weekly acknowledges her ability to steal the show with her portrayal of the acerbic Sweet Sue.

Natasha is a passionate advocate for working mothers and body positivity. As a mother of twins, she understands the importance of representation and inclusion in the entertainment industry. As a founding member and working with Black Theatre United, Natasha aims to mentor and uplift aspiring artists while advocating for justice and equality on and behind the stages of Broadway.
