It has been a shockingly emotional day for me, and I feel quite raw and very sensitive
0:16
And I think it's because in some sense it's reminding me of my childhood, and it's so
0:22
important and it's also reminding me of all the people that helped me. There's a man, David McDonald, who ran Broadway Academy, and he gave me free classes to study
0:30
there when I was a little kid. And it's so important for the arts to be in schools, because I did not grow up in an easy
0:39
way in many situations, and theater saved me. And just what this show has meant to you, how special it's been working with this company
0:45
and just the young audiences coming. Yes, it's been so special. I mean, Jamie Lloyd really took a big swing on this version of A Doll's House, and to
0:53
get to be part of Amy Herzog's Broadway debut is, the fact that she hasn't had a Broadway
0:58
debut yet is a little bit like, how is that possible? Because she's one of our great, great, great writers
1:04
This company is so important to me. I mean, we do a warm-up every day together before our half hour
1:12
We all meet, even the understudies, and we're all together and we play games and we connect
1:16
before we go down stage, before we have our half hour to get on stage
1:22
This just means a lot. It's a big swing, and we got six noms
1:27
So well-deserved. Welcome home to Broadway. Thank you. I mean, I'm a New Yorker, so this for sure, I'm going to be back
1:36
This is where I live. This is what I love to do, and it means a lot to me to be a part of it
