Another show to open!

We run shows back to back at East Central College theater. What that means is that as soon as one show closes, we basically start auditions for the next show. Which also means that while I'm in rehearsal for one show, I'm busily preparing for the one that follows. Our next show is called Broadway and Beyond 5. It's a collection of musical theater songs. I started with the original production of Broadway and Beyond my very first year here and the tradition has continued. Each show features between 15 and 20 different showtunes, which means I have to find a lot of music. I start searching for songs pretty much at the beginning of the year. It's always a struggle because there is so much great music out there. This year I've got about three hours worth of music picked out so far and I'm not finished looking! I love doing Broadway and Beyond because the style of the show is so very different than any other show that we do. Here's a screenshot of one of the songs you'll probably see inBroadway and Beyond 5- a male solo comedy song called In Short about a disgruntled ex-boyfriend.
