Jackie Hoffman Takes On The Addams Family's Critics, Broadway's Sweetheart & More in Birthday Show

Rather than just celebrating her 50th birthday with a cake and some party hats, The Addams Family scene-stealer and Broadway.com resident video blogger Jackie Hoffman is setting up shop at Joe's Pub for a month-long run of her new solo show, Jackie Five-OH!: A Celebration of Jackie Hoffman's First 50th Birthday. After her first riotous performance, Broadway.com caught up with the always amusing Hoffman to talk about her inspiration for her latest cabaret evening. (Doubtless you're already familiar with the one that got recorded, the often-mentioned Jackie Hoffman Live at Joe's Pub.) No topic is off limits as Hoffman takes loving stabs at stars like Kristin Chenoweth and even her own Broadway show by writing a new song for her Addams character, Grandma.
