Thanks

I play a jungle citizen (cheetah) and I put 2 big buns at the top of my head to resemble cheetah ears. Is that good, or can I do any better than that?

taken from the quote, ''the theatre is the one medium that forces, by its very
limitations, that confrontation between an abstraction and a person,
between a system and a group of individual people, between social
history, or political theory, and the actual life of a man and woman'.
needing to discuss the quote but having trouble with the 'abstraction' part!

How much dancing is involved in the part of Phila and what kind. Also i am still looking for audition songs. I think Green finch and linnet bird from sweeney todd may be an option. they're both sondheim and i think the characters are similar- please let me know if i am misinformed because i have never seen either musical. Any more info on the character or musical would be good. would it be appropriate for a 17 year old girl to play this part in community theatre
