In a recent conversation earlier this year, leading actor Annaleigh Ashford discussed her profound respect for the initial Mrs. Lovett, theater legend Angela Lansbury.
"I always dreamed of emulating Angela Lansbury as I developed older, since she personified the penultimate character actress. She possessed the skill to discover comedy and life, as well as humanity within each and every persona she played… She acted during an era when the prevailing influence was the patriarchy, and she coped with grace and affection… On all occasions I encountered her — our paths crossed thrice — I cried tears in an awkward that was uncomfortable enough for me to retreat."
