In a fresh conversation earlier this year, primary actor Annaleigh Ashford discussed her profound respect for the original Mrs. Lovett, theater icon Angela Lansbury.
"I forever hoped of becoming Angela Lansbury as I developed older, since she personified the penultimate role actress. She displayed the skill to discover humor and life, as well as compassion within every single persona she played… She performed in an era when the prevailing influence was the male-dominated society, and she coped with elegance and affection… On all occasions I encountered her — our paths crossed thrice — I shed tears in an manner that was uncomfortable enough for me to retreat."
