00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: So a Dina Manzelle about to walk through the door.

00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,360

Speaker 2: yes did ye? She's absolutely part of the team to

6
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,920

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, wait, you guys go see it because it's amazing.

8
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 3: The visual effects are incredible and she's actually climbing a tree, singing,

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 3: swinging all over the place. I don't know how she

10
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,319
Speaker 3: does it. I want to feel her muscles because she

11
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 3: must have, like, you know, good arms.

12
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: Right.

13
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: Well, she's coming in now, Danielle wants to feel your muscles.

14
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 4: I want to be.

15
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 3: Very nice.

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: We're just talking about Redwood. Danielle saw it the other night,

17
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 2: she said, swinging around the trees and singing, and she said,

18
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 2: it's a little crazy.

19
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 3: How do you How do you do that while you're singing?

20
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: Choreograph my breathing. And I've also found that I can

21
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: hang upside down.

22
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 3: And sing pretty well like Spider Man.

23
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, daniel says the staging is just amazing, that it's digital.

24
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, the visual effects incredible because the only real thing

25
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 3: on the stage is the tree and then you and

26
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 3: everyone else. And it's a small cast too, and it's

27
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 3: only one one uh yeah, one act.

28
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 4: That's it.

29
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 3: There's no intermission. You don't have a pee break for

30
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 3: this one.

31
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: Well we we didn't want. We thought they can't pee

32
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: because then they'll go get twizzlers and then that'll break

33
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: the whole world we've just created.

34
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 4: Yes, he did.

35
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 2: It was weird, No problem with that, right.

36
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: Well, I have my character Jesse, She's lives up in

37
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: a tree for some time, and we do say my

38
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: two friends and the show. They're these scientists, are tree

39
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: botanists who teach me all about this world. And they

40
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: bring in a bunch of stuff and they go this,

41
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: this trash is for trash and your waist. Yes, and

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: so everybody whenever I you know, I can't drink a

43
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: lot of water, and I need to drinkle lots of

44
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: water because I'm a singer, but I don't right before

45
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: I get on stage because I won't be able to.

46
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: And everybody always says, no, just go in the in

47
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 1: the trash can. And I said, how I'm going to

48
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: pull my pants down in front of everyone.

49
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: It's a part of the story make it a part

50
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 2: of the stage so authentic. Did you actually go to

51
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: California and climb some trees?

52
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: Yes, one of the most special experiences was with a

53
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: man named Tim Kobar. So he brought me all the

54
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: way up and I've been learning how to climb. So

55
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: we climbed all the way up there, a little by little,

56
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: and he told me stories. And when we got off there,

57
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,119
Speaker 1: I sang my songs from the show for him up there,

58
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: because I also wanted to feel what it would feel

59
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: like to just be singing these songs, you know, in

60
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: the real environment. And so it was just really one

61
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: of the most beautiful days. And he came to the

62
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: show and he brought me to baby redwoods.

63
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 2: Yes.

64
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 4: Wow.

65
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,119
Speaker 1: So my friend Jobi is you were trying to figure

66
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: out can it go in her backyard in Vermont? In

67
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: my backyard? Right? Job? He says, they can grow there.

68
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, well wow, Okay, no, I have a farm. Okay,

69
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: so GONEI wants to sneak out there in plant redwoods.

70
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: Just yes, I think I do the research for you.

71
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 1: Maybe you want just a thousand years from now, it

72
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: will up.

73
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 4: I'm telling you, I'm not a religious person, but when

74
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 4: I was in the Redwood forest. I felt something there

75
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 4: that I cannot explain. With these thousand year old trees, you.

76
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 3: Will look at it.

77
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 4: I'm coming.

78
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 2: She's my new theater.

79
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 4: Yes, you have to come. What is that like to be?

80
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 4: I mean, I know what I felt there? How do

81
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 4: you feel in there?

82
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: The silence that you hear, it's a deafening silence. It's

83
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: you're all the life birds, all of the little creatures.

84
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: They live way up in the canopy, so you don't

85
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: hear much down there. It's just the moss and it's

86
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: very padded. So there's this beautiful silence down there that

87
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: can be like a sanctuary, but also which my character finds,

88
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: it can bring all the chaos back into your mind

89
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: because you're living in your own thoughts. So I think

90
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: that's kind of what the story is about. For my character,

91
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: is that she's trying to get as far away as

92
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: possible from her troubles and her heartbreak, and so she

93
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: thinks getting all the going all the way from New York,

94
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: getting in her car one night and driving all the

95
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: way to northern California, and she learns that, you know,

96
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: obviously we can't run from heartbreak and our loss we

97
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: have to figure out a way to connect with the world.

98
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: And so I think everyone in the audience, oh, you

99
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: were there. I feel like it's that kind of experience

100
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 1: for everyone, for us on stage, for the audience, that

101
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: we feel interconnected.

102
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 3: I'm gonna lose it.

103
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: Now.

104
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 3: There's two things. First of all, the name of your

105
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: son is Spencer, and that's my son's name character character. Yeah,

106
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 3: when your character starts talking about Spencer and then you

107
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 3: call him spending at one point, oh my gosh, I

108
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: just lost it.

109
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: And then yeah, show.

110
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 3: And then when you're in the tree and like you're saying,

111
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 3: you're going through all these emotions and you're spending the

112
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 3: night and you're going through chaos and then serenity and everything,

113
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 3: and then you name the tree. Which can I say

114
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 3: the name of the tree? She names the tree, Stella says.

115
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: Stella's talking to her. I started crying. My husband starts crying,

116
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 3: and I looked over to him and I'm just like,

117
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 3: he's like, this is just I don't even know what

118
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 3: it was, but it was just the most amazing moment.

119
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 3: And it just this clarity and this because the show

120
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 3: to me was all about strength and how at the

121
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 3: end of the day. The tree is so strong and

122
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 3: it's still there, and all the people that love you,

123
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 3: and all the people that are in your lives that

124
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 3: care about you, they're gonna still be there for you.

125
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 3: They're gonna always surround you. And so just you having

126
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 3: him name Spencer, these feelings in the tree and all

127
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: it's it was beautiful, and.

128
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 1: It was beautiful the heartwood. Heartwood is the innermost part

129
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: of the redwood. It's impervious to to k and disease,

130
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 1: but it's actually dead. So it's this idea that the

131
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: people we've lost, whatever it is we're struggling with, they

132
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: can be inside of us, and they can be the

133
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: things that empower us and strengthen us and and help

134
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: us find out who we are. They don't have to

135
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: be the things that bury us. If you will, just.

136
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: The description of this production is mind blowing. I'm loving it.

137
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: And then it's funny.

138
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 4: It is funny.

139
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 3: The guy who plays the you know, with the beer

140
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 3: park so funny.

141
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so laughing. We hate you with the Zingers

142
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: a little layer.

143
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 3: Her Son sings a song at one point forget it.

144
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 2: You're spoiling the shut up, pour yourself together. Okay, So

145
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 2: there's more than Adina Menzel playing Jesse in Redwood. You

146
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 2: also are on the production team. You are producer, director,

147
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: created on the.

148
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 1: D L because it used to say those kind of

149
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: things in the theater of vanity projects, even though in

150
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: film and TV you can be an actor. And but yeah,

151
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: I because I wanted to learn. I didn't want to

152
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: just sit around waiting for jobs, you know, I wanted

153
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: to learn other parts of of the business. And so

154
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: she as I'm getting older, I want to be able

155
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: to have some kind of control and create things for

156
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: myself and for other people, but also make sure I

157
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: got myself covered as I get a little that in.

158
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 2: Case the acting thing doesn't work out. You singing, he's

Speaker 1: there's lines around the block. Like she just tells me stuff.

175
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: But the idea that we've accomplished this after so many years,

176
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: that the idea that it is really here at the

177
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: Neederlander Theater where I got my start and my whole

178
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: career in rent.

179
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: Of course, thirty years ago.

180
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 3: You guys were like, we were like your first interview,

181
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: you came up in the whole cast.

182
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: You know, I'm in my same dressing room. That's awesome, yes,

183
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: but I want to come clean. I've been doing some

184
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: press and I've been saying, oh, I'm in the same

185
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: dressing room that Daphne room Bega and I were in,

186
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: and that the other dressing room adjacent was so small,

187
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: you know, because we are unknown, so they just like

188
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: put us in these tiny crasies. So now I'm just

189
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: a diva, right, So they've they've now broken down the

190
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: wall to the adjacent dressing room which used to have

191
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: three of the guys and I for the last six months.

192
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,839
Speaker 1: Whenever I tell the story, I say, it was on

193
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: in Pascal, Anthony Rapp and my ex husband Tay Diggs.

194
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: But I just knocked that wall down and I've been in.

195
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: I thought it sounded look at you. So he just

196
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: recently came to the show. He was so blown away,

197
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: so supportive, so emotional about it, and I said, remember

198
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: used to be and he goes, do you don't know

199
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: I was in that dressing room. A good story, don't

200
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: change it.

201
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 2: You get it right, Menzel, of course you was just

202
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: turning us on. Redwood is on Broadway. Today's Wednesday, So

203
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: you do two shows today, so you can be swinging

204
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: around a tree and singing twice a day, go straight.

205
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 1: To the theater, take a quick nap, and then I go.

206
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: What I do is I gotten elliftical at the theater

207
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 1: now so that I can get myself moving and sweating

208
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: and singing at the same time. Because the morning shows

209
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: are just I mean, I will miss four out of

210
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: the two million notes that I have, and that is

211
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: just it's humiliating. Now, there's nothing more humiliating on Broadway stage,

212
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: where you just people come coming to see you. You're

222
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: it's still valuable. Actually, I said, I have a lot

223
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: of experience. It's in cars, not trees. No, it's not

Speaker 1: fifteen year old son who's usually a moody teenager, he's

240
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: actually expresses his pride to me quite often. He was

241
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: here recently and he wanted to see the show three

242
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: times in different places, so to see through his eyes

243
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: that he thinks it's a really big deal. And he

244
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: actually reminds me when I'm pessimistic at times, like mom,

00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 1: I've been taking a lot of time to to give

248
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: myself some props and then be able to see it

249
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: through my son as well. It is. It's pretty profound.
