let's see, my favorite roles
my first role was Ida in "Honk!" when one of my best friends got to play Ugly, so that was fun....besides the little children who played the ducklings...UGH
then I moved on to Wendy in "Peter Pan" which was DEFINITELY a huge learning experience for me because I had to play this character that has been known around the world, but it was just so much fun. That and I got speak with an English accent. THAT was fun!
Next was Cinderella/Rapunzel in "Into the Woods." The explanation for the (/) is that I was originally cast as Rapunzel since I was able to sing that high since I'm the only trained lyric soprano at my school. Then, the girl playing Cinderella had to step out, and my dream part was given to me a week and a half before the show....EEK! But I pulled it off and it was wonderful!
Then was the Mistress/Eva U.S. in "Evita." "Another Suitcase in Another Hall" is probably the prettiest song in the whole show and was so lucky to sing such a beautiful song. And to be the understudy of someone who I thought was amazing was quite an honor and a lot of hard work, especially when she got sick during tech week, THAT scared me. But I never had to play Eva, which is kinda disappointing, but it all worked out in the end.
And my favorite ensemble roles were in "Les Mis" (Older Cosette's U.S.) and "Joseph...."
Straight Shows
Prunella-Christopher Durang's "Cankersores and Other Distractions"
Betty- Christopher Ives' "Sure Thing"
And auditions for "Little Women, the Musical" at a community theatre and "Sweeney Todd" at my high school are coming up.
I would looove to be Beth or Amy in LW
And I'm dying to be Johanna in ST
