re: What has been your smallest role and biggest role?

If we're including ensemble, then a random villager in "Fiddler on the Roof" was my smallest.

If not, smallest role would be Secretary #2 in "How to Succeed..". Heh. I even remember my line!! "That's what *I* thought!"

Largest role:
Currently rehearsing for Sarah Brown in "Guys and Dolls"
Just finished as Charlie Brown in "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown"
*~* Every time you double-post, God kills a kitten. *~*

Kay, the Thread-Jacking Jedi

Just remember, there are no small roles....

re: What has been your smallest role and biggest role?

Well, I've only done two shows in my whole lifetime in community theatre:

The smallest of the two was playing a living doll in The Curious Savage.

The biggest and most fun of the two was playing a Ku Klux Klansman in The Foreigner. That was tons of fun, plus I got to scream "Run away!" every night. re: What has been your smallest role and biggest role?
What the puck?!

Biggest: Marjorie in Musical Comedy Murders of 1940, Janet (less stage time but more lines) in Witness for the Prosecution, or Clara in To See the Stars (WHAT A BAD PLAY! I'd ratherve had a small role in a better show)

Smallest role: Wedding Attendee/Coffin Carrier in Our Town.

Biggest Role: Miss Stacy in Anne of Green Gables. And I didn't even show up 'til partway through Act II. I got my own song, though. It was swanky.
