Broadway’s Brooks Ashmanskas (The Prom, Sunday in the Park with George) received a Sardi’s caricature portrait on Tuesday, May 28.

A Sardi’s caricature is basically “Broadway’s Unofficial Hall of Fame!” Though Sardi’s Restaurant opened in 1921, the owners’ idea of their now world-famous caricature portraits started in 1927. Since then, stars and “ordinary people” alike have come for a bite to eat and to see the portraits hanging in the restaurant.

Nathan Lane also stopped by for the unveiling! Ashmanskas is nominated for a 2019 Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical as Barry Glickman in The Prom.

As a life-long nerdy fangirl from New Jersey, she loves Supernatural and its fandom as well as anything Wayward, Kings of Con, Lucifer, Wynonna Earp, and the musical Bandstand. She’s constantly listening to Louden Swain, The Station Breaks, Briana Buckmaster, The Avett Brothers, The Mots Nouveaux, or any of Aaron Mahnke’s podcasts. When she’s not [procrastinating] on Twitter, you can usually find her binging Netflix with her dog, reading fanfic, or daydreaming about being back in Arizona or Disney World!
