This week, Diana talks with actor, performer, hair and makeup artist Nichole Burkus about growing into new roles, costumes to die for, and two certified hits from Ashman and Menken: Little Shop of Horrors and The Little Mermaid. We generally don’t get political here, but this podcast also takes a firm stance as being pro-wig. Controversial, yet brave.  Get in touch with Two Show Day!
