Master class with Chuck Wagner#0

Today my school had a master class with Broadway actor Chuck Wagner. He was a great speaker; funny, informative, and nice.
He first showed us a powerpoint to give background information (his middle name is Hammock because that's where he was conceived) for those who didn't recognize him (most of the people there). He told stories, answered questions, gave advice on how to audition, and sang "Stars" and "If I Can't Love Her". After the presentation, he signed autographs and took pictures. He was a very great guest to have at school and I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation.

4. "We're not singing it to you, we're singing it for us." -Rosario Dawson, about La Vie Boheme
5. "The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours." -The History Boys
6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

If he was asked to do it, that doesn't show signs of a big head. I had the pleasure of meeting him and he was an incredibly nice guy. He's also probably one of the most underrated performers on Broadway in terms of recognition, but he's always working. The man is talented.

Master classes with Broadway performers are always a unique and fun experience. I know Chuck well enough to say that I'm sure he brought a lot to the table and gave 110%, as he always does.

He's a very dedicated performer and supporter of this industry.
Sure he has a big head...he's a big man! LOL!

Kudos to Chuck, the "Whistle" Prince!

Naw, didnt say he had a big head for doing a master class. He's known in the industry by some people for having a big head.
