Watch David Hyde Pierce Talk Directing Tyne Daly, Sierra Boggess & David Burtka in It Shoulda Been You

Tony and Emmy winner David Hyde Pierce stopped by Late Night on November 11 to chat with Seth Meyers about returning to New York for his stint on The Good Wife and directing the upcoming Broadway show It Shoulda Been You. The new musical will light up the Great White Way this spring at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre—where he made his Broadway debut in 1982. It was a different time back then, he explains. A time when Times Square was just lots of “whores and dead people.” OK, maybe off-brand Elmos aren’t so bad. Pierce describes the tuner by Barbara Anselmi and Brian Hargrove as a “farce with a heart,” with an all-star cast to boot. Watch as he sings the praises of Tyne Daly, “great Broadway star” Sierra Boggess, David Burtka and fellow Frasier alums Harriet Harris and Edward Hibbert.
