There is no way this show won’t be fun.

from Dina DiCostanzo (Cindy Lou, The Marvelous Wonderettes)

“Can you please learn all this great music from the 50s and 60s?”
“Can you put on this really cute dress?”
“Can you work at one of the top theatres in the Chicagoland area?”

…Uh, YEAH I can!

What a treat for me.   There is no way this show won’t be fun.  I mean, this music!  They don’t write ’em like this anymore.  Simple, pure, fun.

Don’t get me wrong, we are all going to be working very hard on putting this show together.  There are lots of harmonies to learn, staging and dialogue to perfect, and moments to achieve, but I’m confident even all that will be fun.  The four of us girls are even getting together before rehearsal starts to watch some fun movies from the time like Beach Blanket Bingo!  Having auditioned and been cast over 4 months ago, I know we are all VERY excited to get started on this…and our wait is almost over!
