'Seussical' cast profile: Amanda Edwards

Amanda Edwards returns to the GCP stage as the sassy Mayzie La Bird!

GCP Girl: Tell me a bit about your character or characters.

Amanda: Mayzie’s a fun-loving, fancy free, delightfully shallow bird who shirks responsibility in favor for fun in the sun only to have the error of her ways brought into sharp focus by a loyal pachyderm.

GCP Girl: Tell me about some of your previous shows

Amanda: This is my third show at GCP. I did Intimate Apparel last year and 9 to 5 this past season. Each experience has been tremendously rewarding and an absolute blast! Shout out to the host GCP girl *Hey KATIE!!*

GCP Girl: Thanks, Amanda! ;) Why did you audition for "Seussical"?

Amanda: Peer pressure ^_^ A lot of my friends were auditioning.

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

Amanda: The Opening "Oh, The Thinks You Can Think!" It's a musical opening number with all the bells and whistles...plus the audience gets personal introductions of the characters.

GCP Girl: What are you looking forward to the most about performing in "Seussical"?

Amanda: Watching the cast grow as discoveries are made and the story sinks in deeper for each of us.

GCP Girl: Why should people see this show?

Amanda: It's a whimsical, fun yet endearing tale with great music and an AMAZING cast. There is something in it for everyone.

GCP Girl: What is your favorite Dr. Seuss character or story from your childhood and why? 

Amanda: The Cat in the Hat. It was one of the first books I ever learned to read and The Cat was a lot of fun.

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

Amanda: The cast of this show is ALL THAT and a bag of chips with a soda on the side ;-)

Thanks, Amanda!
