A Whole New World

Backstage: "Theatre may be the actor's medium, but when a perceptive, empathetic director enters the room, it's the rare actor who doesn't take notice. We're not referring to the director who barges into the production process with hit-filled résumé boldly worn on sleeve. Rather, it's about sensing that the director has something salient to contribute to the actor's -- and the playwright's -- eventual success."

I think it’s great that opportunities are being given to those who might not be able to attend the fancy theatre school. So many people forget, that for the many talented performers in CMU, CCM, NYU, and so on, there are so many others who have just as much or more talent, but couldn’t afford to attend the schools in that price range. This director’s outlook seems genuine, and hopefully that will help make this production a success….if you’re into the Disney thing
