Playbill's new "Twitter Takeover" series launched Sept. 28.
Fans were encouraged to follow @playbill on Twitter to get the scoop from this year's Tony Award winner for Best Leading Actress in a Musical — including backstage pictures, answers to fans' questions, musical theatre musings and more.
Mueller, a Tony Award nominee for On a Clear Day You Can See Forever — who was also seen on Broadway in The Mystery of Edwin Drood and Nice Work If You Can Get It — took over the Playbill account and tweeted prior to and following her Sunday matinee of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.
For more on Playbill's social media presence — including interaction on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr — read Broadway at Your Fingertips!
Playbill's "Twitter Takeovers" will get up close and personal with Broadway favorites. Fans are asked to get in on the action by tweeting @playbill with the hashtag #PlaybillTwitterTakeover.
