I read an interview where Amy was saying the Broadway schedule would work for her because "You can get really hammered and wake up late". The article says this is a joke but for example having seen her live she drinks heavily from a bottle of wine while doing standup. I do wonder if Amy will miss a lot of shows, most Broadway performers I have heard say they have to live like saints to be able to meet the 8 show a week schedule.

as long as she doesn't eat sushi, she'll be fine

I actually think the heavy drinking shtick is just part of her act. She's a triple threat, more Tina Fey in her work ethic, to write/act/perform, than talent for hire. I'd guess she'll be fine just acting.

Gilda Radner, maybe not a bad general model for moving from media to B'way, did the Jean Kerr play Lunch Hour back in the day (not a good play) and had great attendance.
