-Welcome back to the show.
0:01
-Hi. -You look fantastic.
0:03
-Oh, thank you.
0:04
-Before we talk about "Schmigadoon!" --
0:06
-"Schmigadoon!"
0:07
-Congratulations on the Tony nominations here.
0:09
I got to say, last time I saw you was
0:11
at the "SNL" 50th homecoming concert at Radio City.
0:14
Watch it on Peacock if you haven't seen it.
0:16
You stole the show with Marty and Bobbi Mohan-Culp.
0:21
[ Cheers and applause ]
0:22
It was un-- Ana Gasteyer,
0:26
when I tell you it was unbelievable
0:29
and you didn't miss a beat
0:31
and you crushed it and kept crushing.
0:33
-You know what was so fun?
0:35
So, first of all, it's so great because you were there.
0:36
And remember it was chaos. "SNL" is always chaos.
0:40
This was like the Friday night, like kind of pregame.
0:45
-But it almost felt like the 40th anniversary in a weird way.
0:46
Remember the after party?
0:48
-Oh, my God, that's exactly what it felt like.
0:50
And it was all these cool musicians
0:51
because it was the music night.
0:53
So it was like -- It was literally the coolest people
0:56
in American culture for 50 years.
0:58
And then -- -Nirvana reunited.
0:59
-Nirvana reunited. -The Roots played.
1:01
-The Roots played everything.
1:02
Right right. -Yeah.
1:04
-We're backstage kind of panicking, you know.
1:06
-Dressed as these.
1:08
-Dressed as these jokers. -Yeah.
1:10
-And we're like -- and everyone was kind of
1:11
blowing us off a little bit. -Yeah.
1:13
-Because I think they were like, "Who are these nerds?"
1:15
You know? -But that's perfect.
1:16
-I'm, like, trying to make chit-chat with Chris Martin.
1:19
And he's just like, "Whatever, lady."
1:20
-Yeah. -"Nice striped dress."
1:24
-Yeah. [ Laughter ]
1:25
But that's perfect to stay in character.
1:26
-Yeah, my --
1:28
I just don't think they knew who we were, which was great.
1:30
Like, I love the idea that Bobbi and Marty themselves
1:33
just kind of wandered in to do a gig at Radio City.
1:35
-Yeah. Of course. -And we were so --
1:37
We kept -- Will and I were so happy because --
1:39
We were so happy because they would have been
1:40
so excited to be there.
1:43
-Bobbi and Marty. -With all the musical artisans.
1:45
-Of course they would, with all the musical artisans.
1:47
-Musical -- And my dressing room was between
1:49
Jack White and Cher's.
1:52
Dressed like this jackass. You know?
1:54
[ Laughter ] I touched Cher's wig.
1:56
-Oh, for good luck?
1:58
-Yeah, for good luck. You got to do that.
1:59
You got to -- -You're a pro.
2:00
-It's like touching, you know, a, I don't know, like a...
2:02
-Cher's wig. -It's an amulet.
2:04
-Yes, it is an amulet. You never --
2:05
You never broke when we were
2:07
on "Saturday Night Live" together.
2:08
You were very professional. -It wasn't my jam.
2:09
-No. -Because I would dig in deeper.
2:12
I don't know, it's like the Will Ferrell school or something,
2:14
but I would just try to go deeper sometimes.
2:16
One time I broke. One time I broke.
2:18
I don't know if you were there.
2:20
I think you were. You came my second season?
2:22
Third season.
2:23
Harper Steele wrote this insane sketch called
2:26
"Riding My Donkey."
2:27
-Oh, my God. -It was a political talk show.
2:29
-"Riding My Donkey" -- Did that air?
2:30
-It was during the Clinton impeachment scandal.
2:33
And it didn't air.
2:34
-It did not air, but I know exactly the sketch.
2:36
-No, it did air. It did air, but not -- I didn't break on air.
2:39
But what happened was it was a bunch of CNN talking heads,
2:42
a political talk -- It was called --
2:43
-"Riding My Donkey." -It was like ♪ riding my donkey ♪
2:45
♪ Talking about what's in the news ♪
2:47
-♪ Riding my donkey ♪ -I don't remember the second.
2:49
♪ For people who want to know ♪
2:50
♪ I'm riding my donkey ♪
2:52
♪ Yeah, I'm riding and talking and riding and talking ♪
2:55
-♪ Riding my donkey ♪
2:56
♪ Political talk show ♪ -So we're on...
2:59
[ Cheers and applause ]
3:01
-I totally remember this.
3:02
-Thank you. -"Riding My Donkey."
3:04
-"Riding My Donkey."
3:06
So I was playing some CNN talking head political lady.
3:08
And by the way, my whole impression was
3:10
my face going like this.
3:11
-Yeah. -That was the "impression."
3:13
So I didn't have --
3:14
The reason I say that is because it was bad to break in
3:17
because I kept going...
3:18
[ Chuckling ]
3:20
Right? And the donkeys...
3:22
-Well, tell everyone that you were on actual donkeys.
3:24
-We were sitting atop actual asses.
3:27
[ Laughter ] That was the idea, right?
3:28
And we were talking about the politics.
3:29
It was insane. -So it was a talk show
3:31
where all CNN people were on real-life donkeys.
3:33
-Real donkeys and everybody --
3:35
-So there was probably eight donkeys on the set?
3:36
-There were a lot of donkeys,
3:38
and they had not been trained or drugged in any way,
3:41
and they were not obviously comfortable
3:42
with live television.
3:43
It wasn't a great setting for them.
3:45
-Was one of them biting Darrell Hammond?
3:46
-One bit Darrell in the [bleep] I think.
3:49
And I mean, it was a pretty active like "Ow!"
3:52
Like in the middle of a talk, you know?
3:54
-He almost fell off the donkey. -Yeah.
3:55
And were you in it?
3:57
-No, I remember seeing it. -But we kept like lunging.
3:59
-Beth McCarthy-Miller would play it to the crew
4:02
just to make us happy.
4:03
-It was -- [ Laughter ]
4:04
-Like, while we were rehearsing
4:05
like a late night on a Friday night.
4:07
-And because you're like playing to specific cameras on "SNL."
4:09
So each camera for your character is like --
4:12
But they kept zooming past one another's shots, you know?
4:14
-♪ Riding my donkey ♪ -Oh, it was fantastic.
4:15
-Political talk show. -Anyway.
4:17
-And now look at you getting nominated
4:19
for a Tony Award. No big deal. [ Cheers and applause ]
4:21
Ana Gasteyer. -So excited.
4:23
Are you kidding? -Are you kidding me?
4:24
-Are you kidding me?
4:26
-You love Broadway. -I love Broadway.
4:28
-You always have. -This is my sixth Broadway show.
4:29
I am so excited to be nominated.
4:31
'Cause, you know, my first Broadway --
4:33
You came to my Broadway debut to "Rocky Horror Show" in 2001.
4:36
-I remember you.
4:37
You were in "Rocky Horror." -Crazy.
4:39
[ Cheers and applause ]
4:40
Yeah, and I played -- I played Elphaba.
4:43
-And then I was there.
4:44
I saw you as Elphaba, too,
4:44
because you were defying gravity.
4:46
-I defied gravity. -In "Wicked."
4:48
-In "Wicked." [ Applause ]
4:49
-You love it. -I love it.
4:51
And I have to say, like, a lot of this was
4:53
pre-pre-social media, so, you know,
4:56
when people know you from "SNL," the power of television,
4:58
there's still people to this day
5:00
who are very confused by the fact that I do theater or sing
5:03
and "Schmigadoon!" is so fun
5:04
because it kind of smushes it all together.
5:06
You know, it's a -- Lorne's producing it,
5:08
which is incredible. -I know, I love that.
5:10
-And it's a parody of the Golden Age musicals.
5:12
It's about a couple, a modern couple,
5:14
that gets trapped in a Golden Age musical
5:15
and they can't get -- One really hates musicals
5:17
and one loves them, but --
5:19
So it's just this great love letter
5:22
to the American musical theater tradition,
5:24
and it's super analog.
5:26
The sets are hand-painted.
5:27
We have 14 pieces in the orchestra.
5:29
The music is glorious.
5:31
I obviously play the villain.
5:33
Duh. I play the... -You play the villain?
5:36
-I play the uptight white lady. What else is new?
5:38
-Wow. -Yeah.
5:39
-Are you going through your villain era right now?
5:41
-I'm in my villain era, and I get a little redemptive arc,
5:43
but I get to yell at everybody, which is fun.
5:45
-You have a showstopper song. -I do. I do it --
5:47
My song is based on "Trouble in River City" from "Music Man."
5:51
-Yeah. Of course. -And it's a patter song,
5:52
which I thought would be easier,
5:53
but it's actually as hard as Elphaba,
5:55
which kind of sucks because it's hard
5:56
because you got to talk fast, you got to breathe fast.
5:58
And then I built and sing at the end of it
5:59
because it has sort of a tent-revival characteristic,
6:01
but you have to, you know, run it all the time.
6:03
Loudmouth trash with your tom rotten flapdoodle claptrap
6:05
fiddle faddle jiggery pokery.
6:06
You know? -Come on.
6:08
[ Cheers and applause ] Come on, bud.
6:10
-It's fun. -Ana, you're crushing it.
6:11
-It's fun. -Congratulations.
6:13
-It's really, really, really fun.
6:14
And our ensemble -- Please, if you like watching people sing
6:17
and dance on Broadway, come see "Schmigadoon!"
6:19
because our ensemble just won
6:20
the Chita Rivera Award last night.
6:22
-Hey, that's what I'm talking about!
6:23
-They're amazing. [ Cheers and applause ]
6:24
-I believe you're performing on our show in a few weeks.
6:27
-Yeah, we are. We're gonna come do "Tribulation."
6:28
-Yes. -Yeah.
6:30
-It'll be fantastic. -Which is my number.
6:31
-I was going to ask you if you could show me maybe a warm-up
6:35
of something to do. -Oh, yeah, 'cause you like the vocal arts.
6:37
-I do love the vocal arts.
6:39
-And you take your craft seriously.
6:40
-Thank you very much.
6:42
-That's one thing I know about you.
6:43
You do all these stretches to Alexander technique and stuff
6:44
before you come out here, right? -You kidding me?
6:45
-Roll around on some balls.
6:46
Yes. Yes. -Yeah.
6:48
I do a lot of things. I try to --
6:50
I have a lot of weird like tinctures and stuff.
6:53
Like all singers, I'm overly --
6:55
-Oils and... -A lot of oils and tinctures.
6:57
It's not good for marriage, but I like it.
6:59
Um, and then I do -- Like, I do tongue stretching
7:02
and I do a lot of like, you know, um...
7:05
nebulizers and steam and stuff.
7:07
And then this probably does nothing.
7:09
I brought it for you.
7:11
I also do -- I throw on a little bit of red-light mask
7:13
because, you know...
7:14
-It doesn't do anything?
7:16
-Well, supposedly it grows plants in space.
7:18
Red lights. -Oh, yeah?
7:19
-I mean, you guys know that. -Sure. Of course.
7:20
-Everybody knows that. -So why not put it on your face?
7:22
-So why not put it on your face?
7:23
And it's going to take down inflammation.
7:25
So you want to take down inflammation, right?
7:27
So you do that. -I do.
7:28
-But we could try it together if you like.
7:30
-Let's do it. Can we -- Can we --
7:32
-It's good for just keeping people out
7:34
of your dressing room, too. [ Laughter ]
7:36
And then you can do a couple -- Turn it on.
7:39
And is it on? Yeah.
7:40
If you do that and then you can just --
7:42
You can do some soft vowel exercises I get with my teacher,
7:45
and here's a good little phrase.
7:47
-Wait, wait, wait. I want to make my face --
7:48
Wow! Wow! -There you go.
7:50
-Hey! -Looking good. Okay, ready?
7:52
-♪ You're wondering who I am ♪ -There you go. Perfect.
7:56
And now we can just do some basic little seconds.
7:58
-Okay. -♪ This sucks ♪
8:00
-♪ This sucks ♪ -♪ This sucks ♪
8:02
-This is -- -♪ This sucks ♪
8:03
-♪ This sucks ♪
8:04
-♪ This sucks ♪ -♪ This s-- ♪
8:06
Look at how frightening this is. -♪ This sucks ♪
8:07
-This is scary. -See?
8:09
And I'll do some tongue trills.
8:10
This'll really keep everyone out of your dressing room.
8:12
-Yes. -[ Trilling tongue ]
8:14
[ Both trilling tongues ]
8:16
-Yes! I feel like a Broadway star! Ana Gasteyer!
8:20
[ Cheers and applause ]
8:22
Can you even see this?
8:24
"Schmigadoon!" is now playing on Broadway
8:27
at the Nederlander Theatre.
8:29
More "Tonight Show" after the break.
8:32
Stick around, everybody. Come on back.
