Kerry Butler has an enviable list of Broadway musical credits, with shows like "Hairspray," "Xanadu," "Little Shop of Horrors" and "Catch Me If You Can" on her resume. Now she's making her mark in a Broadway play as part of the impossibly starry ensemble cast of "The Best Man." Butler, who plays politician's wife Mabel Cantwell, is sharing a stage with James Earl Jones, Angela Lansbury, Candice Bergen and more, and she stopped by Show People to tell Broadway.com Editor-in-Chief Paul Wontorek all about it. Butler dished on this amazing stage experience, then chatted about everything from her childhood in Bensonhurst to a potential Hairspray reunion. Upping the cuteness factor even more are tales of her adorable daughter, who imitates Angela Lansbury and loves the risqué Catch Me number "Doctor's Orders."
