Let the sunshine in...

I have a new found respect for Gavin Creel...
Recently I've found out that a musical company close to me is doing a production of Hair next spring. HAIR! One of the most iconic pieces in musical theatre history. It defined the meaning of "rock musical" today!

For those of you who haven't heard it of, it's a show based in the hippie-Vietnam era in America. It tells the story of a "tribe" and their search for love and peace. And most importantly...There's a nude scene. Nom nom!

Anyhoo, I thought I better wait to get my college timetable before I apply to audition and release my inner hippie in October. But while I wait I might as well practice some of the songs from the show right?...Well sweet baby Jesus, I don't think I'll be able to talk for weeks to come. How the actors of the Broadway company perform this 8 times a week, I'll never know. Gavin Creel, and all of the other people who have played the role of Claude, I take my hat off to you!

So anyway, I urge you all to join me in completely wearing out our voices until our neighbours call the police. Keep on dreamin' people!
Also, did I mention that it's a mere three short days until I start college? No? Well there ya go, and I won't be able to speak...So worth it!

Guilty Dreamer..:)
