Cynthia Erivo - 'Harriet'

Only an O shy of an EGOT, the British actress/singer — just the third person ever Oscar-nominated for acting and music in the same year — reflects on how she wound up at RADA, her life-changing experience with the musical 'The Color Purple' and what drew her to playing Harriet Tubman.
