Broadway encounters

Carolee_carmello_1It was wonderful. Carolee Carmello visited my school. She’s originated roles in musicals like the Falsettoes. She was in recordings of Jekyll and Hyde, A Class Act and many many more. She also played Kate (in Kiss Me Kate) and is currently the mum in Mamma Mia on Broadway. Then she surprised us by even suddenly deciding the sing. And it was wonderful. And I think it was the fact that she didn’t have any training vocally that made it so raw but yet natural and real! Next week we meet another Broadway personality.

I also watched Brooklyn the musical yesterday. It was great. Eden Episona especially had such a stunning voice. Literally, I was stunned. She really soared and quite effortlessly. The story unfolded in a captivating way and the songs were delightful. Definitely a CD I want to add to my collection.

When I reached home today, I saw a sign posted on my door. They were going to film The Producers, the musical on my street, in my area! I looked up the net and realised Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick and Roger Bart all reprise their roles! John Barrowman even guests. Will I get to meet them!? Who knows. We’ll see. I’m excited!
