GCP Girl: Why did you audition for "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"?
Andy: I like musicals and thought that this one might be fun to do.

GCP Girl: What is your favorite musical number or scene in the show?

GCP Girl: What are you looking forward to the most about performing in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"?
Andy: Being able to portray two very different characters.

GCP Girl: Why should people see this show?
Andy: It's light-hearted, fun, and nostalgic. It reflects upon a simpler time in history.

Andy: Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn were my summer reads as a kid.

GCP Girl: Tell me something you'd like everyone to know.

Thanks, Andy!
