I was in two high school productions of Bye Bye Birdie. When I was in 7th grade, they needed a younger kid who could play the son/Kim's sister and the year after I graduated high school, they did it again and had four graduates come back as the barbershop quartet.

I was also Victor Valesco in a high school production of Barefoot and then played Paul in a college production.

The only role I've played twice was Scrooge. My college did an annual performance of "A Christmas Carol" and I played Scrooge my junior and senior years.

Emery in Boys in the Band twice
I've played both Ed and Donald in You Can't Take It With You
Godspell three times

---

Godspell twice, the "Bless the Lord" character.

Guys and Dolls. The first time, I was 15, and I played one of the Salvation Army people (Agatha). It was my first professional show (gotta love dinner theater in NJ), and my first show with my uncle, who's been an actor longer than I've been alive. I was a substitute for one night, I almost fell off of a bench I was standing on while dancing in "Sit Down, you're rocking the Boat", and I got paid $50. I bought a dress with my first professional paycheck. The second time was the next summer, and I was Sarah Brown, my favorite role to date, and I hope to get to play it again someday.

Oliver 3 times.
Joseph... 3 times.
My Fair Lady twice.
Guys and Dolls twice.
Children's Hour twice.

Oh, and I just got offered a job doing Oliver again, but I haven't decided yet.

I've been in Beauty and the Beast twice. Once as Maurice, the other as ensemble.

the wizard of oz 3 times..

well in 8th grade we did 'oz' and I was glinda

then my junior I was the wicked witch in a production because I 'sounded too old for dorothy'

well I went after dorothy a 3rd time...and I was cast! so those freakin casting people can now kiss my little butt hahah because the show ran for a month with sold out performances and their show ran for a weekend with half the audience full!! (that felt good.. hahahah)

but let me tell you, I'm wizardofozed-out hahah AND this summer the show at this community theatre where I usually do shows at is 'the wiz'. I literally screamed when I found out.

JOSEPH... twice - 1st time was modeled after the original Broadway production, I was Judah (no solo) and the 2nd time was taken from the '90s Donny Osmond revival version, I played Issachar and the Baker!

..SUPERSTAR! 1st time was one of the worst productions of the show EVER and I was Herod. The 2nd time was modeled after the new DVD and I was, again, Herod. I did my cartwheel/split in both productions, but at least the second time i didn't have to wear a black feather wig and pink boa around my ass and sing over TAP dancing back-up singers! OY!!!!

A role I would love to play again would be Horton in SEUSSICAL!

And my favorite role EVER, which I've played twice and would kill to do again and again....

Reverend Mother in NUNSENSE A-MEN! The first time I was just Reverend Mother. The second time I directed/choreographed and played Rev. I'm directing NUNSENSE this summer and I am BUMMED that I won't be able to get back in the habit again! (The theater is making me do the all female version!)
