For Idina Menzel, it’s not “If/When,” it’s spring 2025.
The former star of “Wicked” will return then to Broadway in a new musical called “Redwood.” It’s the story of a grieving woman who drives up to northern California to find solace
Menzel, of course, is famous for singing “Let it Go” from the animated movie, “Frozen.”
She last starred on Broadway in a short lived musical called “If/Then.”
“Redwood” comes to Broadway from the La Jolla Playhouse. Tina Landau will direct.
“I’m so thrilled to be returning to Broadway, and the fact that I get to do it with Redwood, a musical that means so much to me, makes it even more special,” Menzel said. “This show has lived in my bones for 15 years, from the very first time Tina and I discussed working together. Finally getting to do it on Broadway is really a dream come true.”
No other casting announced yet, but very tall actors will be required to play the trees.
