Captured in striking intimacy and detail, “Idina Menzel: Which Way to the Stage?” follows Menzel on a national tour over the course of 16 shows on the road. The film showcases never-before-seen footage of Menzel throughout her life, from home videos of her early days as a singer at just 7 years old to her beginnings at the premiere of “Rent” the musical in 1996 to preparing for the original role of Elphaba in “Wicked” and the creation and subsequent phenomenon that was “Frozen.” Featuring interviews with Menzel herself, her parents, family, friends and co-creatives, the documentary weaves in Menzel’s show-stopping performance as she conquers the stage at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Menzel has had a long and incredible career that is far from over. In her own words, 

We made this documentary to show firsthand how important it is to pursue your passions and lean on those around you in times of hardship… …This documentary was a joy to make, and I hope it resonates with my fans and new audiences alike who find themselves balancing motherhood, work and marriage while chasing their own dreams and inspires others to keep pushing forward.

Menzel’s voice and performances have been iconic and have definitely influenced her many fans worldwide. I’m excited to check out this documentary as someone who has been a fan of Menzel since I first heard the Wicked soundtrack.
