August 12, 2011 The live-action, musical version of Disney's "The Jungle Book" hits the stage tonight at the Wichita Theater performed by area children. I think it is going to be great, and am looking forward to seeing the production. Of course, I am a little biased since my daughter is in the play. Shout out to Mary Katherine!
Last night was the big, fat debut of Hairspray in Texoma and man, was it AMAZING!! At least I hope it was for the audience (I heard something about TWO standing ovations : ) I wasn't nervous until we had a quickie cast meeting where our lovely director, Lynn Marshall told us that we'd set a new opening night record! Over 300 in the audience! Which is amazing considering the balcony was closed in honor of the message of Hairspray.
Man, I've missed being in theatre! The last show I was in seems like a lifetime ago! Getting cast in Hairspray at the Wichita Theatre has been amazing! And we have just over a week of rehearsals left!
In case you missed my interview with some of the characters (and, oh, what fun characters : ) from Wichita Theatre's Seussical the Musical, check it out below!
While I was pulling an all-nighter at Relay for Life, your favorite Dr. Seuss characters--the Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz & more debuted on stage at the Wichita Theatre.
