My first show was the Broadway revival of '42nd Street', which didn't really get me into the theater thang (spelled that way purposely). I saw it when I was 12.

"The King and I.

I really need help, who played Anna in November, 1997 "

On Broadway? Wasn't that Donna Murphy? Maureen McGovern did the National Tour.

First broadway show was the revival of the King and I in 1996, I was 7. And the first tour I ever saw was Grease, also in '96.

Evita 2nd bway cast
First Professional tour - Pippin w/ Michael Rupert
I believe that Faith Prince had taken over the role of Anna in the King and I revival by Nov. '97.
The three Anna's during that run were
Donna Murphy - Tony award
Faith Prince
Marie Osmond

The Sound of Music 1998 revival (and i have a story that goes along)

I was 6 when i saw it and turning 7 on Tuesday, so when Marta said the line "i'm turning 7 on Tuesday", i kind of flipped out.

and marta was played by andrea bowen, whose now in desperate housewives(one of my favorite shows) and she plays julie,one of my favorite characters

did anyone understand what i just said?

Oh Mamie, fear not, - - after reading your bio - -you are not so
long in the tooth - - we have a lot in common, we love the theatre and
probably have seen the most amazing shows, My 2nd. show was the
original of " MY FAIR LADY " with all the original cast, was young but
LOVED and remeber EVERY SECOND of it!
