DL and Gay Icon Jackie Hoffman Stars in Fruma-Sarah (Waiting in the Wings)

Is that a nose job?

Datsa da Photoshop job!

yum-oooooooooooooo !

When I saw a pic of her in her new play, I was certain it was Terry Sweeney in drag.

She's also on "Only Murders In the Building," along with the very similar Jayne Houdyshell.

Why isn't she playing Mrs. Brice?

Did anybody see her in the show?

I’m curious how it was.

“I could feel that it was time. Time for a new beginning. And I knew that this was possible only through a cleansing fire. It would all have to burn. The packing peanuts, the delivery slips, all of it would dance in the warm mouth of my fire. And a new, better, wonderful me would rise from the ashes like a phoenix. Behold: the splendor of my beginning!”

gorg!

LOVE HER.

Supertalented and superfun.

I used to read a Hanukkah story to my school kids with a character by that name, is it a Jewish archetype?

Does anyone else always confuse her with that other Jewish actress with the face? You know which one I mean.

A very affordable $30 on Cameo!

She looks like Hoda Kotb.

Yes, her too, R14, but I’m thinking of a Jewish actress who was in countless independent films and always sort of looked like Ms. Hoffman. You know which one I mean. Her name escapes me.

How much on OnlyFans?

R15 Mare Winningham?

Mare Winningham is hardly Jewish, R17.

R18 Mare Winningham has been Jewish for nearly two decades now and played many Jewish characters like in St. Elmo’s Fire, thank you very much!

My bad, R19, but Mare's not quite the image of Molly Picon-type actress from the Yiddish theater that R15's post evoked.

..........

I give her credit for not trying to look attractive in that headshot, in any way imaginable. It's just full on, this is my face, deal with it you whores.

Jackie is the greatest gay icon that has ever iconed!

Did we get an answer to R15’s query? It can’t really be Mare Willingham.

R24 is Kevin Spacey, still jealous having to share valedictorian with her.

I asked a friend today, who told me I’m thinking of Ileana Douglas. She was correct!

Are you sure that is a woman in op's pic?

R15/26, Douglas is indeed a natural born Jewish woman. Not Molly Picon Jewish, but certainly more pedigreed than Mare Winningham.

R27, compared to the pic in R4’s link, the pic in OP’s link makes her look like Jayne Mansfield.

As a gay man I find her appealing enough. I absolutely adore her work and performances.

..........

was she considered for the mother/Jane Lynch role in Funny Girl?

If she isn’t bumped up to a main character in Only Murders in the Building season two I’m not watching. Please someone make sure this gets to Hulu.

Winona Ryder? Elizabeth Taylor? Natalie Portman?

I'm just now watching [italic]Feud[/italic], and she's fantastic. It's like somebody shrank Rosa Klebb in the dryer.
