On Episode 6, I talk with sunshine human and Broadway performer, Ephie Aardema who lives in Jersey City.  Ephie and I were roomates in Astoria, Queens for 3 years; we laugh, talk about what it's like to self-quarantine by oneself and relish in "books n' bath time".

6. Me and Mariska Hargitay - Ephie Aardema

Happy New Year! This week on The Cool Kids Table, we had the opportunity to chat with Broadway actress and songwriter Ephie Aardema. Ephie is an original cast member of The Bridges of Madison County and starred as Dawn in the Broadway touring production of Waitress. She talks candidly about her upbringing, what inspired her to gravitate towards musical theatre, and the people who have positively impacted her life along the way. Hear some wonderful tips about being an actress and joining a tour as a replacement along with a fun "Wingin' It"
