What do Broadway actors have in common? Besides a love of the stage, most of them have guest starred on Law & Order (so much so that it was a bit at the 2019 Tony Awards). But while Broadway has come to Law & Order, the reverse isn't as common. Law & Order: Special Victims Unit longtime lead Mariska Hargitay wants to change that. She recently went on Amy Poehler's podcast Good Hang and made it clear that she wants to be on Broadway, noting that she's seen Hamilton 27 times.
"I wanna do Broadway. I want to be in an all-woman Hamilton," said Hargitay, before adding that she would play Aaron Burr and Poehler should play Alexander Hamilton. Laughed Hargitay: "I know all the lines ... The only problem is one thing, I can't sing!" Though that idea is probably impossible for Broadway, it does sound perfect for the next Miscast gala.
Listen to the podcast episode to hear how Hargitay manages to see Hamilton so often, even when she doesn't have a ticket.
