At just 24 years old, Joy Woods is taking Broadway by storm. Just months after creating the role of 'Middle Allie' in last season's The Notebook, she traveled one block south to join the cast of the greatest musical ever written. That musical, of course, is Gypsy.

"The best thing about the run is being able to learn! It's one of the best written pieces ever, I think- and I know a lot of people also think that," she told BroadwayWorld's Richard Ridge. "Getting to  dig deep, learn something new, try something new, and  be held by people who are letting you do that is so much fun!"

Watch as Joy chats more about bring this classic show to a new audience, why this role means so much to her, and so much more. Plus, check out who she is up against and catch up on all the latest Tony Awards coverage!

The 78th Annual Tony Awards will air on Sunday, June 8, 2025.
