• 52 - Marcia Marcia Marcia on Cabaret, Drag Race & Ariana Grande

  On this weeks edition of Call To Stage: Broadway Edition we are joined by a superstar of not just the stage... but also the drag world. Marcia Marcia Marcia is the drag name of Marty Lauter - you might recognise them from Season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race (where they were voted 'safe' by judges for a record breaking seven consecutive episodes), but they actually got their start on the Broadway stage. Having made their Broadway debut in Kinky Boots in 2018, MarciaX3 went on to join the national tour of Hello, Dolly! and currently stars in Cabaret on Broadway as Victor and understudy EMCEE. On this episode of Call To Stage: Broadway Edition, Amber and MarciaX3 talk about their journey from off-Broadway to Cabaret, their experiences going on as EMCEE and the real behind the scenes of RuPaul's Drag Race. Plus they spill the tea on their top skincare tips and their friendship with (Call To Stage alumni) Ariana Grande!
