    2026/09/04
    This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Kate Rockwell—and we are getting into the very wild road that somehow led from reality TV to Broadway to Mean Girls and motherhood. Before Broadway, there was Grease: You’re the One That I Want!—yes, THAT reality competition show. Then came Legally Blonde, where Kate made her Broadway debut understudying Elle Woods and basically got thrown straight into the deep end. And then, of course, there’s Mean Girls. Kate gets into how Karen Smith came into her life, what it was like working with Tina Fey, and why Tina is the ultimate girl’s girl. We talk about women supporting women, finding your place in this industry, and building a career that can actually grow with you. Because somewhere between eight shows a week and raising kids, Kate has figured out that you don’t have to choose between being a mom and being ambitious as hell. We get into: • The absolute fever dream that was Grease: You’re the One That I Want!• Making her Broadway debut understudying Elle Woods in Legally Blonde• How Mean Girls and Karen Smith came into her life• Why Tina Fey is the ultimate girl’s girl• What happens when the role everyone knows you for changes everything• Juggling motherhood, Broadway, and a career that doesn’t stop just because you have kids• Why women supporting women MATTERS• And obviously, a little Tutz + Kate chaos Come for the Broadway tea. Stay for the reminder that you can be a mom, have a career, want MORE—and not apologize for any of it.

    episode 25 | orfeh
    2026/08/21
    This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Orfeh—and we are OBSESSED. We’re talking rocker Orfeh, Broadway Orfeh, and the Orfeh who refused to let anyone put her in a box. Before Broadway, she was a rocker. Then came Legally Blonde, where she clawed her way to Paulette and proved that being weird, loud, different, and completely yourself can actually be the secret sauce. Orfeh gets VERY real about the bubble the industry has put her in, why she’s determined to break out of it, and what it looks like to say, “Actually… I can do way more than you think I can.” Because being “odd” isn’t something to fix—it’s something to lean into. We get into: • Her rocker days before Broadway • How she clawed her way to Paulette • The industry bubble—and breaking OUT of it • Why being odd is actually the whole point • Reinventing yourself when people think they’ve figured you out • The Unfortunately Named Orfeh and Screeching Whore • And a LOT of Tutz + Orfeh chaos Come for the Broadway tea. Stay for Orfeh reminding us that being yourself is always the move. This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day.

    About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Jenn Colella and… this one is FUN. We’re talking Come From Away. We’re talking SUFFS. We’re talking about Jenn’s rock star era before Broadway was even part of the plan. And somewhere along the way, Jenn becomes obsessed with saying “Tutz,” so naturally things go off the rails. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, we get into the career moments everyone knows—but also the person behind them. Jenn takes us back to Come From Away, originating Captain Beverley Bass, and what it was like being part of a show that became so much bigger than anyone could have predicted. Then we get into SUFFS—because obviously you cannot sit down with Jenn Colella and NOT talk about women using their voices. We talk about standing up for yourself, standing up for the people around you, and knowing when it’s time to stop worrying about being liked and just say the thing. We get into: • Jenn’s rock star days (we needed answers)• How she found her way to Broadway• Come From Away and the insanity of watching that show take off• Becoming Captain Beverley Bass• SUFFS and being surrounded by a LOT of powerful women• Standing up for yourself when it would be easier not to• Standing up for other people when they need someone in their corner• Why sometimes you just have to say the damn thing• Jenn saying “Tutz” approximately 400 times• Us laughing… a lot• And the beginning of what can only be described as the Jenn Colella presidential campaign This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. Come for the Broadway stories. Stay for Jenn Colella saying “Tutz.” Jenn Colella for President. Follow @oddwomanshowFollow @SammyTutz Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    episode 23 | ann harada
    2026/08/07
    About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Broadway icon Ann Harada—and we are getting into ALL of it. From originating Christmas Eve in Avenue Q to entering the wonderfully unhinged world of Schmigadoon!, Ann has built a career by doing something that sounds simple but definitely isn't: knowing who she is and refusing to pretend to be anyone else. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, we go back to Avenue Q and talk about the role that changed everything. Ann gets candid about playing a character that she personally felt comfortable with—even when some people in the Asian community didn't feel the same way. We talk representation, stereotypes, changing conversations, and what happens when something can feel completely okay to you and completely NOT okay to someone else. Because two things can be true at once. Then there's Schmigadoon!—the TV series, the musical, the comedy, the chaos—and Ann takes us behind the scenes of getting to live in that deliciously weird world. And yes... we go there. Ann opens up about her dispute with September L. Davis, what happened, and what she learned from finding herself in a situation she never exactly planned on being in. Through all of it, Ann is refreshingly Ann: funny, opinionated, self-aware, and completely uninterested in becoming the version of herself somebody else thinks she should be. We get into: • The Avenue Q audition that changed everything• Becoming the original Christmas Eve—and everything that came with it• Representation, stereotypes, and being comfortable with something other people weren't• Why you can hear someone else's perspective without pretending it's your own• Staying true to yourself when people have opinions about who you should be• Going from Schmigadoon! on Apple TV+ to Schmigadoon! onstage• What really goes into making that ridiculously fun world work• Her dispute with September L. Davis—and yes, we talk about it• Navigating uncomfortable conversations without losing your sense of humor• Why Ann Harada is still doing things her own damn way This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. If you've ever wondered whether you need everyone to agree with you in order to trust yourself... you don't. Sometimes being the odd woman out is kind of the whole point.

    episode 22 | jessica frances dukes
    2026/07/24
    About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with the wildly talented Jessica Frances Dukes—and trust me, this conversation goes places. You know her as Special Agent Maya Miller on Ozark, you've probably seen her commanding the stage in Broadway's Trouble in Mind, and now she's starring in the gritty new series The Westies. But before all of that? There was a little girl with an incredible imagination, imaginary friends, and absolutely no idea where that creativity would eventually take her. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, we get into why imagination isn't something you grow out of—it's the thing that keeps artists alive. We talk about building a career one experience at a time, the years she spent honing her craft in places like Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, why every role (even the ones nobody sees) matters, and what it really feels like when years of hard work finally start paying off. It's funny, honest, unexpectedly emotional, and the kind of conversation that reminds you your path doesn't have to look like anyone else's. We get into: • The imaginary friends that sparked her creativity • Why protecting your imagination is a superpower • Her journey from regional theatre—including Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company—to Broadway's Trouble in Mind • Landing Ozark and what playing Maya Miller taught her • Starring in the new series The Westies • The reality of building a career that lasts instead of chasing overnight success • What she's still learning about herself as an artist • Why the best opportunities usually show up when you least expect them This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. If you've ever questioned whether all the little steps are actually leading somewhere, this episode is your reminder that every single experience is part of the story.

    episode 20 | eden espinosa
    2026/06/27
    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 This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. 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.

    episode 19 | qween jean
    2026/06/14
    About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with the incredible Qween Jean — costume designer, activist, community leader, and now Tony Award winner. At the time of this recording, Qween Jean was a double Tony nominee for her costume design work on both Cats: The Jellicle Ball and Liberation, two productions that couldn't be more different but perfectly showcase her creativity, vision, and artistry. And since this conversation was recorded? Qween Jean went on to win the Tony Award for Best Costume Design of a Musical for Cats: The Jellicle Ball. Casual. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, this episode is equal parts inspiring, hilarious, unfiltered, and the kind of conversation that makes you want to stop apologizing for taking up space. Beyond her work on Broadway, Qween Jean is the founder of Black Trans Liberation and Black Trans Liberation Kitchen, organizations dedicated to supporting and uplifting Black trans communities through advocacy, mutual aid, and direct action. But what makes this conversation so special isn't just the résumé — it's hearing how Qween Jean has built a life and career rooted in purpose, community, and refusing to wait for permission. We talk about why activism matters, what it means to advocate for yourself when the world isn't always built for you, and how Qween Jean turned passion, creativity, and determination into a career that's changing Broadway and beyond. Qween Jean opens up about navigating the industry as a Black trans artist, finding confidence in her voice, trusting her instincts, and creating opportunities instead of waiting for them to show up. It's honest, empowering, and a reminder that sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is show up exactly as yourself. We talk: • Being a double Tony nominee for Cats: The Jellicle Ball and Liberation • Why activism and artistry go hand in hand • Founding Black Trans Liberation and Black Trans Liberation Kitchen • Advocating for yourself and taking up space unapologetically • Building community and creating opportunities for others • Navigating Broadway as a Black trans artist • Representation, visibility, and why they matter • Trusting yourself when no one else sees the vision yet • Her journey to becoming the artist, activist, and leader she is today This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day.
