About

This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Broadway legend (yes, legend) and Tony nominee Eden Espinosa.

Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio—with mimosas in hand because... obviously—this episode is for anyone who's ever wondered what it actually takes to survive—and thrive—in an industry that constantly tells you who you should be.

From becoming one of the most iconic Elphabas in Wicked, to BKLYN, to earning a Tony nomination for Lempicka, Eden has lived about five different Broadway careers in one lifetime. And somehow? She's still just getting started.

Over a couple of mimosas, we get into the reality of navigating social media when everyone suddenly has an opinion, why she's stopped giving energy to trolls, what it means to trust yourself after decades in the business, and why this summer she's trading Broadway for Shakespeare.

It's funny, candid, a little boozy, refreshingly unfiltered, and proof that the loudest voices in the room aren't always the ones worth listening to.

We talk:

• Her Tony-nominated performance in Lempicka

• Becoming an iconic Elphaba in Wicked

• The legacy of BKLYN and the roles that changed everything

• Sipping mimosas while spilling Broadway tea

• Why social media trolls don't get a seat at the table

• Learning to protect your peace in a very public career

• Spending the summer doing Shakespeare

• Reinventing yourself without losing who you are

• What it actually takes to stay in this business for decades

If you've ever felt like everyone had an opinion about your life, your career, or who you should be... pour yourself a mimosa and press play.
