Directed by Daniel Ryan, the dreamlike clip finds Spektor performing the mid-tempo ballad at a piano situated in the ornate lobby of the Theater.

Lin-Manuel Miranda — currently preparing for the production’s UK debut and his starring turn in Disney’s Mary Poppins Returns — sent a video message all the way from London for…
