WATCH: Broadway legend Audra McDonald reflects on playing Mama Rose in “Gypsy”

Already the most Tony-nominated actor of all time, Audra McDonald could become the winningest performer ever if she takes home her seventh Tony Award this Sunday for her role as Mama Rose. She spoke to Gayle King about her journey and her emotions surface at the end when she speaks of the Black women in theater who inspired her. It’s a powerful and beautiful moment.
