Redwood is a musical with music by Kate Diaz and lyrics by Diaz and Tina Landau and a book by Landau.
The show tells the story of Jesse, a woman who is inspired to go on a journey of self discovery by losing herself within a Redwood tree forest.
Jesse (Menzel) seems to have it all — a successful career and devoted family — until a life-altering event drives her far from everyone and everything she knows. When she finds herself at the foot of the redwoods in Northern California, a chance encounter and a leap of faith will change her life forever. Redwood explores the lengths — and heights — one travels to find strength, resilience and healing.
The show premiered in 2024 at the La Jolla Playhouse and is expected to transfer to Broadway in 2025.
