Cinderella. Age 4 I was one of the white mice, first speaking was the Muffin Man, age 6

Yes, thrilling, but I still like to be the first one out as well.
HAVE YOU BEEN TO NEW YORK?
Yup, even worked there for a while.
HAVE YOU BEEN TO LA?:
Yup, even done theatre there, In Pasadena, Glendale and Hollywood...lol
WHAT'S THE SCARIEST PART OF AN AUDITION?:
The start, the anticipation, the trying to figure out what the director wants, the analysis of your competition then letting it all go and remembering I do this for fun, not to raise my blood pressure. What is meant to be will be.

ON A SCALE OF 1-10, HOW IMPORTANT IS GETTING PAID?:
It's everything! Wait, no that is selling out right?...I prefer getting paid, but I am an artist and love the performance as a gift. I will write more on this at a later time.

-a wardrobe malfunction that opened safety pins into my crotch during a monolouge.
-A kid that forgot the whole scene during a performance.
-A cast that wasn't paying attention and didnt hear their cue to come on...Yes, the whole cast.
-A carrot coming loose from a bunch and sailing through the audience.
-a bubbling cauldron that wasnt supposed to bubble.
WHO IS THE MOST DIFFICULT PERSON (ON STAGE OR OFF) THAT YOU HAVE EVER WORKED WITH?:
A guy at Southern who everyone disliked. While building a set , another guy was up on a scaffolding and droped a hammer on his head and no one balked.

Why, what have you heard. Oh, you mean before an audience. No, but I have had to wear boxers and go topless when I was in better shape.

BEEN DRENCHED?
Nope.
BEEN IN A DREAM SEQUENCE?
Yes the one where I was killed 10 times.
BEEN KISSED?:
Yes. The first time the show had a bunch of kids in it as well. They would line up in the wings and make the funniest expressions and cup their hands on their face. Hard to stay in character with that.
