The TonyAwards are tonight, and Julia Lester is nominated for Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in a Musical. TimTeeman talked to the 'Into the Woods' star last August. Check out the interview here:

Into the Woods has taken on, and that it becomes a show which, when people come to the city and hear it is on, they think they have to get a ticket for it. I’ll be with the show as long as they will let me.”

“One line constantly sticks out in my mind. When the Baker’s Wife has died, the Witch says, ‘Wake up, people are dying all around us.’ They’re not the only ones suffering loss. From the stage, you hear the gasps of the audience when she says that. That line rang true during the AIDS crisis, it rang true after 9/11, and it rang true after the pandemic. I think that’s why people are coming and enjoying it and getting so much from the show. It’s therapeutic.

“Ashlyn is a lot younger than me, and is slowly learning as time goes on. And I am still learning to look at the bigger picture of how you get there and why all the trust, hard work, dedication, professionalism, and respect you put into the world will come back to you.”
