Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder are set to portray their 'Hacks' characters on stage for a special one-night-only live show in Hollywood. The performance, titled 'Deborah Vance & Friends & Enemies Live!', will be held on Friday, August 14, at The Fonda Theatre.
Supporting cast members from the series are also expected to appear in their respective roles. The event has sold out and is scheduled to coincide with phase two of Emmy voting.
The fifth and final season of 'Hacks' concluded in May. The series has received 24 Emmy nominations for the upcoming awards, which are scheduled for September 14 in Hollywood. This number breaks the record for most Emmy nominations for a comedy series.
Jean Smart could achieve a unique record if she wins for Outstanding Lead Actress In A Comedy Series, having won the same award for every season of the show. This would be an unprecedented achievement for a woman in the acting categories.
