Broadway favorite Idina Menzel is featured in this week's issue of People Magazine, channelling opera diva Maria Callas (who inspired Terrence McNally's Master Class) in a striking pose. Check out the beautiful photo and compare it to Maria herself below!

Menzel (Wicked, Rent, Aida) is currently starring in If/Then, a new musical on Broadway that explores the effects chance and choice take on one woman's life. If/Then reuintes Menzel with Anthony Rapp, her original Rent co-star (the pair played Maureen and Mark, respectively). The musical also stars Tony award winner LaChanze (The Color Purple).

Additional New York stage work includes The Wild Party (MTC), Hair (Encores), and See What I Wanna See (Public), Menzel has performed internationally, both in musicals (she brought Elphaba to London's West End) and as herself in a concert tour. Other film and television credits include Enchanted, Ask the Dust, Glee, and Rent. Solo albums include Barefoot At The Symphony (a live recording of her PBS special by the same name), I Stand, Here, and Still I Can't Be Still.
