I can't help it--I'm a musical theatre major!!
hey, that's cool--i was in Once on this Island in high school. it was great--a bit like the Little Mermaid, don't you think? so were you in any/all of these?(the only other things i've been in are Leader of the Pack and Anything Goes.)
hey there! another musical lover. well, yes, i've been in a few of these. but a lot on this list are too recent to be in high school, college, and community productions. the problem with living in new york is that you can't do any shows that are currently on broadway because the location of my school is too close to nyc. so now that i'm in boston for college, we can do whatever we want! can't wait to start on the good stuff..... i always wished i was in once on this island. that's the unfortunate result of being so pale, i could be in the arian race--can't do any of the really soulful musicals like ragtime or once on this island, or west side story. glad to hear you've had the pleasure of doing that show. anything goes rocks, too!! i did that my junior year. fun fun. :-)
hahaha... i'm laughing because i'm as white as a white girl can be--we just did the *pretend* version, i guess. actually we somehow focused it more on social class than race--and no one in rural western new york seemed to notice! (good thing no broadway purists were there.)
