Long before she defied gravity, Idina Menzel was just dancing through life.

In her late teens and early 20s, the “Wicked” star was a wedding singer for hire, often closing her sets with sumptuous club classics such as Donna Summer’s “Last Dance” and Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive.” Now, Menzel is returning to the genre that shaped her with euphoric new album “Drama Queen,” which finds her unleashing her inner-disco diva.

“It was always in me,” she says over coffee. “What’s so great about this album is that it’s less methodical. It’s music that I love to sing and grooves that I love to move to.”
