Lea Michele Finds Inspiration for ‘Chess’ on Broadway
Lea Michele is back in the spotlight and she couldn’t be more thrilled! The Broadway star recently opened up about her latest role in the musical ‘Chess’. Michele credits none other than her former ‘Glee’ co-star and on-screen mother, Idina Menzel, as the powerhouse who inspired her to take on this challenging new part.
Channeling the Spirit of Broadway
In a heartfelt conversation with PEOPLE Magazine, Lea shared that watching Idina Menzel’s commanding performances made her believe in the magic of the stage all over again. She described this new chapter as both “exciting and nerve-wracking”—but then again, isn’t that what Broadway is all about?
It’s inspiring to see Lea embrace a fresh challenge with such energy. Maybe the next time you’re feeling stuck, just ask yourself: “What would Idina do?” (Probably belt out a showstopper and steal the scene!)
So, if you’re a fan of musical theatre or just love seeing artists push their boundaries, Michele’s journey in ‘Chess’ promises to be a performance you won’t want to miss.
