Introduction.

      Hello to anyone who has happened to stumble upon my blog. Broadway has fascinated me for many years and this is an easy output for all my ideas about Broadway. I first stepped on the stage in the fifth grade. As the Benfield Elementary School's "MC" for the Talent Show, I didn't exactly start off with a bang. I was a nervous ten year old who felt as if the whole show would go down if I messed up.


        That was just the start of this unhealthy obsession. In that same year my parents signed us up for season tickets to Baltimore's Hippodrome. Now, this was no New York City's Times Square, but I was young and had never been to New York. My first professional level theater experience was going to see Jesus Christ Super Star. I was still pretty young but even by intermission I was telling my mom that this is what I wanted to do with my life. Little did she know that I actually meant it. Every kid goes through phases where they want to be an astronaut or a dolphin trainer, and believe me I had those phases too, except once I hit actress, I never looked back.


      As a father-daughter bonding experience, my dad decided after my fifth grade graduation to bring me to the beloved city of New York. The city was just as amazing as everyone had described it to me and of course the first thing I asked was if we could go and see shows on Broadway. By the time the weekend had finished I had seen both "Sweet Charity" with star, Christina Applegate, and "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. It was defiantly life changing experience.


     Now, a senior in high school, I have been in around twenty productions and seen hundreds, which takes me to the point of this blog. Everything Broadway from returning shows, things in the works, or stars drama and news, I will report and comment. Thanks for reading, and stick around!
