One of the highlights of the already hilarious musical Something Rotten! is the moment in Act II during “Make an Omlette” when Marisha Wallace makes a brief but oh-so-memorable appearance as Eggie White. By that point, anyone with a pair of eyes has been watching for Wallace in every and all ensemble scenes—serving you face, vocals, and popping that Casey Nicholaw choreography.
Wallace made her Broadway debut in Nicholaw’s 2014 hit Aladdin, again stealing so many moments from “Arabian Nights” to “Prince Ali”.
So let’s give it up for Marisha Wallace and her star-sized talents with these 15 videos that will having you living your whole life.
