00:00What is your favorite Tonys win of all time?
00:02My favorite Tonys win of all time?
00:06Oh man, I mean Andre DeShields was amazing.
00:09Anytime Patti LuPone has won has been amazing for me in my heart.
00:13But I think of Andre's speech a lot.
00:16What about it do you remember?
00:18The fact that he was saying about the people that you surround yourself with
00:21are the important ones, the people that you allow into your orbit
00:24and who build you up and support you and make your life what it is.
00:29Is there someone that, you know, we're here celebrating a lot of great nominees.
00:33Is there someone you wish was here?
00:34Something that got snubbed that you would really want to celebrate?
00:37Oh, I mean, I think it's obvious.
00:38My castmates, Lea Michele and Aaron Tveit,
00:40I think they're doing remarkable work on that stage every night.
00:43I get to watch it close up and I've been watching it for months
00:45and I think they're remarkable.
00:48And also, Bradley Dean, low-key, as Molokov, is incredible.
00:52He's incredible.
00:53And I just, I want him to get his flowers.
00:56Are you feeling the energy in New York?
00:58I feel like our city's having a moment.
01:00Oh, my God, I know.
01:00It's crazy.
01:02I don't think, I mean, I've lived here for a long time
01:03and it's never felt this sparky.
01:05And I don't even watch basketball like that.
01:07But I'm a Knicks fan, so I'm excited.
01:10Are you going to be watching tomorrow?
01:12Yeah.
01:12What else am I going to be doing?
01:13Where are you going to be?
01:14My house on my couch.
01:16I have not had a day off.
01:18I've had two days off all year.
01:20So tomorrow is pizza and soft serve on my couch.
01:23Where are you ordering pizza?
01:25Lindistry.
01:26Yeah.
01:27How do you prevent, you know, two days off in a year?
01:30That's like, you know, people at home, like, it's pretty crazy.
01:33Not a lot of people do that.
01:34How do you avoid the burnout?
01:35What is your tip?
01:35I love what I do.
01:36I like, I love it more than anything.
01:39And anything that supports what I get to do
01:41and I get to be on stage every night, I'm going to do it.
01:44Like, I told my whole team, you know, when this happens,
01:47your team calls you up and they're like,
01:48what do you want to do?
01:48What do you not want to do?
01:49You don't have to go to every gala.
01:51You don't have to.
01:51And I was like, no, I want to do everything
01:52because I want to soak this up for all that it's worth, you know?
01:57I want to enjoy it.
01:59What's the next dream you'll be chasing?
02:01I want to do a play really, really badly.
02:04I would love to do a play.
02:05About?
02:06Anything.
02:07I'd love to do a drama,
02:08but I'd also love to challenge myself with a comedy
02:10because it scares me.
02:12But I would love to do also classic theater.
02:15I'd love to tackle some Shakespeare, some Tennessee Williams.
02:17I'd love to do that.
02:18Dream person of having that play with you?
02:20My husband.
02:22Yeah.
02:22He's a great actor and I'd love to work with him.
