Which was the musical that got you interested in musical theatre?
The first musical in my life was The Sound of Music. Until I was four, my Gran used to look after me during the daytime. And at nap time, she used to platy me one of three LP’s – the other two being My Fair Lady and Mary Poppins. The reason I single out The Sound of Music is that I, probably at around age 4 or 5, made a tape of myself singing Liesl’s part of “Sixteen Going on Seventeen”. I found the tape a couple of years ago and, even if I say so myself, I am pretty damn cute. I guess that is where the love affair started for me.
Jesus Christ Superstar.
