Carrie Preston wants more Broadway stars on her CBS show Elsbeth. The Emmy winner attended the Tony Awards last weekend and talked to many theater actors. Preston asked each performer if they wanted to appear on the crime comedy series. She promised to help them land guest roles on future episodes. The actress met Brooke Shields and Celia Keenan-Bolger at the awards ceremony.

Cole Escola made history at the Tonys as the first openly non-binary winner. Escola won Lead Actor for playing Mary Todd Lincoln in Oh Mary. Preston hopes to cast Escola and other Broadway performers on her show. The Elsbeth creator wants to work with every major theater star possible. Her show already featured many famous guest actors during season two.

The season finale brought back eight popular guest stars for a musical episode. Stephen Moyer and Retta returned alongside Gina Gershon and Elizabeth Lail. Mary-Louise Parker and Ethan Slater also appeared in the special episode. Producer Jonathan Tolins created a tribute to the musical Chicago. The team waited months to receive permission for using Cell Block Tango.
