Dream job: Ooooh I don’t know that yet but if I could combine theatre and psychogy in some way that would be awesome.
How long have you been doing theatre?: Since 7th grade!
What’s your favorite production that you’ve been in and why?: I’d say Hairspray because I played Seaweed and it was really fun to be him. There was another show called Veldt where I got to be an evil character and I enjoyed that.
So you aren’t evil in real life?: No, I’m not evil in real life even though I’m a Gemini.
What’s your favorite song right now?: I’ve been listening to either “Hotline Blink” by Drake or “Soap” by Melanie Martinez. “Soap” (the song) kinda sounds like bubbles. Give it a listen.
*He proceeded to play it. It did sound like bubbles*
Theatre production that he would sometime like to be in: Into the Woods. I’d be open to playing a lot of characters but being Jack would be cool.
I asked him for a fun fact and he said that he was smaller than a Beanie Baby when he was born! How fitting–as adorable as a Beanie Baby.
