If so, favorite show? Favorite role? Least favorite show? Least favorite role?

Favorite show I’ve been in: tough, but I’m going to go with Bye Bye Birdie, just because more of my friends were in it even though I was an ensemble role.
Favorite role: my current one, King Oberon of the Faeries
Least Favorite show: I’ve in,y been in three shows, but the worst was definitely Looking Glass Land
Least Favoite Roll: one of my three roles in BBB: a teenage ensemble girl.

@@jynandor sometimes ensemble roles are really fun because you have more freedom… While big roles are really fun as well, the ensemble can be a really good time.

Favorite Show: Peter and the Starcatcher or Music Man (both had really fun casts/scenes/music)
Favorite Role: Jaques in As You Like It was fun. So was Teacher in Starcatcher. I'm currently playing Emily in Our Town, but we haven't started rehearsal yet so I'm not sure what my opinion is.
Least Favorite Show: Band Geeks. Worst cast ever.
Least Favorite Role: Band Geeks ensemble. Again, the cast made it suck.

These are all community shows, as my school doesn't have a theater program.

Yeah but all of my friends were leads or at least named teens, so I had to go to rehearsal with a bunch of people I didn’t know.

Favorite show: Alice in Wonderland. Mainly because it was super fun to be the Mock turtle, and I had a green-pillow/backpack as my shell, which allowed for comfy backstage resting.

Favorite role: The Mock turtle, mainly because the makeup was super cool, everyone had fun, and it was the most professional one I've done.

Least favorite show: The Arabian Nights one I'm working on right now. The cast isn't the greatest, everyone's goofing off, and some of the girls in there (it's all girls for some reason) don't even want to be there.

Least favorite role: Child in the Nightmare before Christmas. I had 3 words to say and I was off, which lead to really long, boring rehearsals, and me memorizing all the lyrics to the songs. I can't hear this is Halloween without singing along, lol

Favorite Show: Into the Woods. I was Lucinda and the makeup and dress were so much fun and the music was amazing!!!

Favorite Role: The Caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland Jr. For sure.

Least Favorite Show: Annie. I've done it twice and that is enough to make anyone go crazy. I respect it and whatnot, but I am not going to join in a production of Annie again until I'm wayyyyyyy older and maybe not even then.

Least Favorite Role: Mrs. Pugh in Annie. This was my second time doing the show and the cast was just so problematic and it gave me entirely too much anxiety. Plus, I was forced into the role and yeah. It's just not my favorite role.

I did community theater for 9 months and my school has a theater program I've been a part of for three years. Into the Woods and my second production of Annie were through the school, the others were through the community theater.

Ugh. I can’t stand the original Annie. I’ve seen Annie twice, and the only role I’d want in it is Miss Hannigan. I like the Annie movie they did back in like 2014 though

Favourite show: Probably Murder in the House of Horrors. Pretty fun actually
Favourite role: Cinderella, as she got to have multiple existential crises
Least favourite show: Guys and Dolls
Least favourite role: A freaking chorus zombie 'cuz I got the make-up stuck on the inside of my mask during the dance scene

@stargirl-3213 Into the Woods is my all-time favorite show. That's super cool that you got to be in it.

Favorite Show: Game of Tiaras
Favorite Role: Soldier
Least Favorite Show: Ladies of the Tower
Least Favorite Role: Matildhe

@stargirl-3213 Into the Woods is my all-time favorite show. That's super cool that you got to be in it.

Yeah! I love that musical too

YESS
I WAS IN INTO THE WOODS
I WAS LITTLE RED
IT WAS SO FUN

Favorite show: Dear Evan Hansen
Favorite role: Riff (west side story)
Least favorite show: Cats The Musical
Least favorite role: Anyone from Cats. That show is plotless and pointless. XD

Favorite show: This comedy the theater director wrote which was about an old lady at the apocalypse
Favorite role: the nurse from Romeo and Juliet. I am usually a props/scene person but this time I was cast only because we are a very small community theater and someone was sick so I had to fill in
Least favorite show: You can't take it with you. we had so many mishaps and everything just went wrong and I just don't like the show in general
Least favorite role: One of the branch things in Little Shop Of Horrors. Don't get me wrong it was a great show and all, but I could barely see and it was kind of stressful.
