This week Sarah Paulson appeared on the Smartless podcast hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett. While discussing celebrities coming backstage to meet the cast after a play, Jason asked if they accept criticism from these visitors.
Sarah said that in 2013, she did a play called Talley’s Folly. The original 1980 Broadway production starred Judd Hirsch and Trish Hawkins, and the 1982 West End production starred Jonathan Pryce and Hayley Mills. Sarah’s mom and Trish Hawkins were in a writing group, so they came to see Sarah’s show together.
“The last time I was on stage, I did a play called 'Talley's Folly' at the Roundabout, and the actress -- and I'm going to say this, and I'm not going to ask you to cut this out, because I don't f--ing care -- this actress came to the play. Her name is Trish Hawkins -- Hi, Trish! Hi, Trisha! Trish Hawkins came to the play -- am I going to get sued? I don't care, because I think this is outrageous. She came to the play, proceeded to say -- she looked at me up and down and then she went, 'Your dress is yellow. Mine was pink.' And I thought, 'What?'“
“Cut to two days later, I got an email that was six pages long of notes and a communication to me about what she had done when she had done the play, what she recommended I do. It was outrageous. It was really outrageous. Trish Hawkins, I have not forgotten it, and I hope to see you never."
