Feel-Good Friday, in spite of #ICEMAGEDDON

By


Whoah, what a week! But congrats y'all because we made it to Feel-Good Friday: The Icemageddon Edition! So many exclamation points! Ok, I'll stop now.

For starters, I'm so ready to get back to "normal life things" after being stuck home all week. Don't you want to meet up with friends, go to dinner, catch a show and just basically FROLIC? Well remember that one week from today STOMP will be playing the VBC Concert Hall. You know that's where I'll be, so go on and get those tickets, and make those plans:







STOMP
January 26 - 27, 2024
Friday at 8pm
Saturday at 2pm & 8pm









The rest of my Feel-Good Friday musings are brought to you by a glimpse into our little BTL Family's past week. Thanks Kaitlyn for making it look so pretty! Take a look:






You might have seen me as Enjolras in Les Misérables, Munkustrap in Cats or Prince Charming in Cinderella. I used to perform in many Broadway Tours all across the country. Now I report on them and give you an insider's view into this unique little world. So, let's talk about all things Broadway!

Get ready to reignite your belief in fairy tale endings. ” I’ve always loved the movie Pretty Woman, but I hadn’t seen the stage show before. So, I was extra excited to get “the skinny” from Kerry D’Jovanni over the phone from his hotel room in Birmingham. Kerry plays David Morse and various ensemble in this National Tour. Let’s just get right to it. What was your journey with Pretty Woman: The Musical ? I had been working as a performer in various capacities: Kinky Boots , Holland America Cruise lines, an international

Come From Away with Sharon Wheatley

  Sharon Wheatley, original Broadway cast member of “Come From Away”,  sets the record straight   Having the distinction of being the only actress who’s performed in the Broadway productions of Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera and Cats (the final company) among others, Sharon Wheatley was taking a break from New York City when fate intervened and brought Come From Away and her together. Sharon was living in San Diego in 2015 when she received a Facebook message from a casting director saying that she’s perfect for this new show that is originating there, and they needed a local hire. Well Broadway was calling her back to NYC and the rest is history. What was it about Come From Away that persuaded you back to New York City? Come From Away is not a traditional musical. We just happen to be singing as we tell this beautiful story. There are only three applause breaks in the whole show. This one is special! There have been a couple of misconceptions about this show, fo

  You might be thinking how in the world did we see 11 Broadway Shows in 3 Days? Especially when Pretty Woman: The Musical was about to play here in Huntsville for five performances. Well, we divided and conquered is how: half of us flew to NYC for a long weekend, while the other half stayed in Huntsville to prepare for Pretty Woman’s arrival. We’re all exhausted, but we’re all equally inspired! Pretty Woman was a big success. BIG! HUGE! The audiences loved it. And now that they’re off to their next tour stop, I can share our reviews on the 11 shows we saw in NYC: The Great Gatsby : The show was visually stunning. A big splashy Broadway musical for sure with the sets & the costumes, set in the 1920’s, and what a feast for the eyes! Jeremy Jordan was outstanding. We’re still in shock that he didn’t receive a Tony nomination for this one. We highly recommend The Great Gatsby if you’re a fan of the book and/or the movie(s). Andrew pointed out how he’s always felt connected to
