Company
Unless you're a dancer, then I'd go with Anything Goes.

Posted: 10/10/09 at 12:48amWho cares about age? That just makes it funny. There's some really hysterical high school productions of Company on youtube.

Posted: 10/10/09 at 12:52amHmm, I was in the exact same predicament last semester! I auditioned for both and got into Anything Goes, much to my surprise, considering I'm a singer-actor............................mover. Just audition for both and let the prod staffs decide for you!

There's really no way for us to tell you. Do you really have a chance at a lead -- or will you be aiming at the chorus or a bit part? Do you have lots of time to commit or are you on a more limited schedule.
What KINDS of show do you LIKE. Research them and make the decision for yourself.
PERSONALLY, I'd rather be in the smallest role of Company than the lead character of Anything Goes. But that's just me.

Posted: 10/10/09 at 9:55amI'd think "Bobby" would be a hell of a lot more satisfying as an actor than ANY part in AG. (But that's just me.)

Posted: 10/10/09 at 11:01pmOf those shows Company is BY FAR the better show in my opinion. Much more interesting and better roles. If you don't get Bobby you will most likely get a featured part because there aren't really any ensemble roles (but it's ironic that it's an ensemble piece...)Anyway, that might have confused you but every role in Company is a good role as opposed to a background singer/dancer in Anything Goes.
