Johnson has a long history with the Lyric Theater. This is Johnson's seventh time in a production of the show, counting this one.
She has played different roles during her time in the shows. She recalled the show's 1997 run, which was the second show she performed in at the Lyric.
Later, Johnson shared more history of her time performing with other people at the theater. Harrison isn't new to theater, but she's new to the Lyric Theater.
