The mother of Tina and Todd (or is that both Todds?), Irene Manning, is alive and well--and back in Llanview! Barbara Rhoades (GENERATIONS; SOAP; BUSTING LOOSE) has now debuted in the mysterious, pivotal role of the not-at-all-dead mum, and We Love Soaps is proud to welcome the talented film veteran (Serial; The Goodbye Girl) and Broadway baby ("Funny Girl"; "Love, Loss, and What I Wore") back to daytime.
We recently featured Barbara in episode 2.34 of WE LOVE SOAPS TValongside Kim Zimmer (GUIDING LIGHT; ONE LIFE TO LIVE) and Orfeh ("Legally Blonde: The Musical"; Across the Universe). She talks about working with the great Barbara Streisand and even dishes on being fired from GENERATIONS. Let's just say she may have managed some parting gifts!

We also reviewed her performance in Delia and Nora Ephron's "Love, Loss, and What I Wore." You can read the review here: http://welovesoa.ps/WhatIWore.
ONE LIFE TO LIVE airs weekdays at 2:00 p.m. ET on ABC.
I've always loved Barbara Rhoades. It's so great to see her again!
ReplyDeleteI just knew you guys were fans of Barbara Rhoades. I've been a fan of hers for years. It's great to see her get this opportunity. I'm hooked.
ReplyDeleteIt would be great to hear a second interview on her take on Irene and the storyline.
