well im not aspiring to a musical theater career but when i was younger i was in a theater program where we wrote and performed our own shows and I played the lead, Helena, in a show entitled Satchmo's Gang @ Lincoln Center's Walter Reade Theater which was covered by a bunch of news sources. There was a 3/4 page photo of me and my dad (who happened to be playing my dad) in Newsday, dancing in rehearsal, with me standing up wearing braces, which was supposed to be this big heartwarming moment in the show. NY1 News did a piece on it too. Im real proud of that. I was thirteen.

Posted: 3/13/05 at 11:30amI guess that would be Harold Hill in THE MUSIC MAN, or Bobby in COMPANY. Harold's the bigger role, though. Although my favorite role was Bud Frump in HOW TO SUCCEED...
