The wickedly talented Adele Dazeem—sorry, we mean Idina Menzel—returns to Broadway as the star of an original musical that she conceived with the highly creative director Tina Landau (SpongeBob Squarepants), who has also written the show's book and co-written its lyrics with composer Kate Diaz. Menzel plays a woman who goes into the woods of Northern California as a means of coping with the death of her adult son. The cast of five also includes De’Adre Aziza as Menzel's wife>, Zachary Noah Piser as their late child, and Michael Park and Khaila Wilcoxon as a pair of tree huggers who help her climb to healing.
