Here’s tonight’s Final Jeopardy answer and question for Friday, November 25, 2016:
Final Jeopardy! category: ENTERTAINERS
Final Jeopardy! clue/answer: He won a Tony & later an Oscar for the same role & decades later, published a memoir called “Master of Ceremonies”
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Justin Bender, a technical engineer from Boulder, Colorado
Liz Hutchens, a registered nurse from Lake Wylie, South Carolina
Andrew Lee, an aspiring TV writer from West Hollywood, California (2-day total: $40,002)
Joel Grey, of course, portrayed the Master of Ceremonies in both the stage and film versions of the Kander & Ebb musical Cabaret. He won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for that role, as well as the Tony for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical.
You can check out Louis Bayard’s review of his memoir, “Master of Ceremonies”, in the Washington Post, as I can’t do a summary of the review justice.
