| This reminds me of going to Straw Hat auditions back in the early 90s. You'd stand on a stage and audition for like 40 to 50 summer theaters all at once. Do they still do this? I ended up working two summers at the Forestburgh Playhouse from this. A young unknown Jason Danieley played Che in EVITA and Perchick in FIDDLER while I was there. Also Neva Small who played one of the daughters in the movie of FIDDLER played Golde in the Forestburgh production. The Forestburgh Playhouse still exists today. Douglas Carter Beane is directing a production of BABES IN ARMS there. | |

The producer of the StrawHat auditions these days is Broadway's own Kirsti Carnahan. There are a number of other major regional/unified audition organizations as well. |

| That is a blast from the past. I was in a production of THE MOST HAPPY FELLA in 1996 in which Kirsti played Amy. She was wonderful! Good times. | |
