Thank you. When you heard your name, like, what went through your mind? Um, everything. Everything at once
0:12
I was like, holy shit. I think I was, like, squeezing Josh and my husband's hands
0:16
so hard before they announced my name. What made this so special for you
0:22
with working on something like it hot? Well, I just love working on the show, as you know
0:26
You know, I love working on it. I love the cast. They're kind, hard-working people
0:30
and they work their butts off, and I do, too. So we all cut together like that
0:34
but we also have fun doing it, and I love it. Being a part of a theater community
0:38
it's where you live. Uh-huh. What it means to you. Well, can't ask me that question
0:43
because it's gonna... Clearly, it means a lot. It's a happy night, too
0:53
I know. I'm so happy. Yeah. But that was just... That's a lot. It's great
0:57
Let's talk about the joy that your show brings. Close it, girl boy. Yeah, totally. Just like..
1:01
We all dreamed about it. You watch the Tony Awards, you come to see a live show, and you're like, I want to be a part of that world
1:06
where someone let me in. Totally. And, you know, my parents, like, had no desire to be in theater at all
1:11
and, you know, and they, you know, took me, drove... We had no money growing up
1:15
They got me the cassette of Chorus Line. My mom pulled me out of school and drove me up to see a matinee
1:20
We couldn't afford for her to go, so I went, and it was just incredible
1:24
So the fact that they introduced me to that and was also... It was just amazing. So to be here now, it's like..
1:29
I never could have guessed it then. Yeah
