When Sara Bareilles signed on for “Into the Woods” off-Broadway, she had no idea the adventure would lead to Broadway and a Tony Award nomination, and serve as a moving tribute to the late composer Stephen Sondheim.
Bareilles found success after college, and racked up a string of hit albums, including “Little Voice,” “Kaleidoscope Heart” and “The Blessed Unrest.” Her hits include “Love Song” and “Brave.” She already has earned a Grammy for her role in the “Into the Woods” cast album.
Bareilles identifies as a theater kid, so the nomination for a musical theater performance means a lot to her. While her trajectory suggests a future on the stage, Bareilles says that won’t mean giving up on her regular musical career.
