Realize I'm talking local theatre here.

Noah Claypool - Oliver
Begger - Kismet
Father - Bye Bye Birdie (wow, I got to sing in this one!)
Jesse James - Deadwood Dick-Legend of the West

That last one was off-Broadway, (Queens in fact - the Black Spectrum Theatre) but it did get directly off-Broadway for a short run. (Can't remember the theatre.)

I've been in a lot, but I'll just name my favourite.
PARADE!
We did it at French Woods Festival for the Performing Arts(where JRB went) and I was Jim Conley. It was incredible! AND just to top things off, Jason came to the camp to see one of the run-throughs! THEN he did a workshop with us and worked with us for a few hours! Most amazing day of my life! Best moment of the summer, getting to work one on one with Jason Robert Brown, and after that, him conducting Old Red Hills of Home with the entire company singing! AMAZING!

I just got cast as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady. I feel a lot like Little Red . . . "well, excited and scared."

Having danced in many Broadway shows (always in the corps) I can say that the highlights were:

On Your Toes
Babes In Arms
I Married An Angel
Boys From Syracuse

All with the great Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart and George Balanchine. I worked with many other famous names during my career, but these men were by far the most gifted and talented people I ever encountered during my time dancing on Broadway.

Mister Matt- I would also like to be in Naked Boys Singing.

broadwayguy2- What's your thoughts on the "perfect" cast for this show?

"I'm learning to dig deep down inside and find the truth within myself and put that out. I think what we identify with in popular music more than anything else is when someone just shares a truth that we can relate to. That's what I'm searching for in my music." - Ron Bohmer

"I broke the boundaries. It wasn't cool to be in plays- especially if you were in sports & I was in both." - Ashton Kutcher
