TRIAL & ERROR: Kristin Chenoweth on Joining the NBC Comedy

For new TRIAL & ERROR star Kristin Chenoweth, her new role of Lavinia Peck-Foster was love at first read.

“I read the description of the role, and then I found out what the show was,” Chenoweth told reporters of being drawn to the comedy. “And then I read the first three episodes. I was like, ‘Don’t tell them, but nobody but nobody else is doing this part but me.”

Chenoweth, who has boasted scene-stealing television roles in PUSHING DAISIES, GLEE, and GCB, counts this as “probably one of the best parts I’ve ever been given.” In addition to the on-screen fun, “I’m with people who are like me,” she enthused. “These comedians are true actors.”
