Sarah Pidgeon finds her voice, her inner rock god and a Tony nomination in Broadway's 'Stereophonic'

NEW YORK (AP) — Sarah Pidgeon is making her Broadway debut this season in a celebrated, thoughtful show about how art is created. And getting her first Tony Award nomination. And in a play that's transformed her into a member of a rock band. And notching her first cast album.
“I’m having so many pinch-me moments,” the actor says. “I am living the dream, and I didn’t have the dream because I hadn’t read the script yet. I didn’t know it existed.”
Pidgeon co-stars as rising singer-songwriter Diana in “Stereophonic,” playwright David Adjmi's story of a Fleetwood Mac-like band in the mid-'70s recording music over a life-changing year, with personal rifts opening and closing and then reopening.
Diana's boyfriend is the band's perfectionist guitarist and de facto leader, and cracks soon appear in their relationship as business and personal needs clash.
