DAME EDNA's first THEATER TALK in 1999

Gigastar DAME EDNA visits THEATER TALK for the first time in 1999 to talk about her hit Broadway show, her humble origins in Australia and her scurrilous manager, Barry Humphries

[@tomtalker2000]

Barry Humphries is a comedic LEGEND AND ICON...!!! I absolutely ADORE Dame Edna and her character. She's witty and you can NEVER catch her off guard.

[@Chuckles2109]

Dame Edna has a lovely way of tearing someone a new one so brilliantly 😅😂

[@tipitii7388]

Rest in peace Dear Dame Edna, thank you for all the laughs!❤️

[@crystalheart9]

[@pattysherwood7091]

Edna is so good I keep thinking she is real. I believe her that much.

[@SorinOltean77]

what do you mean you keep thinking she is real? don't you see her in bone and flesh right on the screen? do you think she's CGI?

[@pattysherwood7091]

@@SorinOltean77 I don’t even know what CGI is!🤣I don’t know much.

Wow, New York. A bastion of perceptive intellectuals. Not really 😕 love Dame Edna

[@Rashy225]

It’s funny that they’re complaining about political correctness in 1999. Compared to now it wasn’t PC. I hate how PC everything has become.

[@micheldejong1813]

There's a lot of insincerity - even in the theater 🤣🤣

[@farfisa]

terrible presenters aren't they. dull as dishwater.

[@johnconley3473]

These hosts are horrible 😫
