Members Mr. Vixen Posted September 4, 2011 Members Share Posted September 4, 2011 Okay, where my theater-bitches at?! I was looking back at some photos and decided to make this topic. Who here did theater in high-school? Anyone? If so, what plays were you in, what roles did you play, and what were some of your audition songs?

Members AdelaideCate007 Posted September 4, 2011 Members Share Posted September 4, 2011 Oh yeah, I did theater all through out my childhood and high school- I was very very hyper and wanted lots of attention so my stepmother put me in all these kiddie acting classes and took me to all these community theatre auditions. Like regional/community theatre wise, I was in the Sound of the Music (twice! lol- once as Marta and once as Brigitta), The Music Man as Amaryllis, Little Louise in Gypsy, Kim in Bye Bye Birdie, and a few more, but those were the big ones. At school, I was Magnolia in Showboat, Lilli/Kate in Kiss Me Kate, Adelaide in Guys and Dolls, and Charlotte in A Little Night Music. In university, I was Stella in A Streetcar Named Desire. When I was really young (like six or seven), I would sing Maybe from Annie (such a cliche I know) because it was the only musical song I knew and the only musical I had ever seen (we had the VHS tape of the movie version with Bernadette Peters and Carol Burnett) besides Les Miserables (I was like five and fall asleep) and Evita. Then when I got older I would either sing Can't Help Lovin Dat Man from Showboat or Goodnight My Someone from The Music Man because those were the only Broadway shows I'd ever seen (other than Chicago and Ragtime) and I had the CDs so I knew all the words (incidentally the same woman who played Magnolia in Showboat when I saw it played Marian in The Music Man when I saw it too). My father would buy me all the cast recordings and the tapes of the movie versions and I would walk around singing the songs from them and I would try to get my siblings to act out scenes with me. I remember when I was in like year 3, climbing on top of a desk during class and singing Rainbow High from Evita lol (my classmates loved it; the teacher did not).
