Musicals!
I was in a production of Hairspray! and it was super fun! I was Edna Turnblad (she's usually played by men, but none of the guys wanted to do it) and performing Welcome to the 60s was probably the most fun I've ever had on stage! (it involved spinning chairs *squee*) I'm listening to the song right now and I always listen to it when I'm putting on makeup as well. :D
Because it is summer and I prefer to keep my life drama-free at the moment, I haven't touched my phone at all and instead, I've been watching shows on the computer, one of which was Legally Blonde: The Musical which sounded to me like the cheesiest thing on earth but it was hilarious. I've also been watching snippets of Wicked and I really want to audition for Glinda, mostly because of the song Popular. Sadly, I can't sing. :'(
What are your favourite musicals? Mine are Hairspray, Legally Blonde, Wicked, and Book of Mormon. Matilda looks really interesting and I want to see it so badly! And I really want to see Les Miserables which is fortunately coming to Toronto soon!
What about songs? Mine are Welcome to the Sixties, Popular, I believe, Revolting Children, and every single song from Legally Blonde.

That was last month (: I'm just really awful at remembering how old I am.

I love musicals! I'd talk about my favorites, but this post would end up looking too much like TNO's (the first one) because there's too much overlap. Anyway, I don't get to actually see many musicals, but I have seen Wicked and Road Show in person (which was awesome), and of course I've watched more online. Mostly, though, I just listen to cast recordings and read the librettos if I can find them.
In eighth grade, I got to act in a production of Beauty and the Beast Jr.; that was really cool, too. I was one of the narrators and one of the villagers.

Next year I'll be too old for Children's Theatre camp and so it's either the major production that is performed several times, or tech camp (helps with effects for above mentioned production) so I'll do tech camp.

Oh, yeah, I've seen the official touring productions of Mary Poppins and I'm going to see Wicked. I've also seen productions at my local community theater of a ton of stuff because my parents used to take me a lot and that was the go-to field trip for years. It's a theater-in-the-round, so it's a really fun experience.

I want to see Les Mis so bad. It would have to be the movie because musicals are expensive and I don't know if Les Mis will be showing in Charlotte anytime soon.
