"Into the Woods" - The Cast Speaks Out! (Part 4)

Continuing our e-interview with some of the cast members of the musical Into the Woods (which starts Friday evening at Huntington's City Hall auditorium), our next question is:

Would you recommend community theatre as an activity for young people?

- Kristin Caviani (Jack’s Mother) Of course! It has changed my life in so many great ways. Theatre is a great way to meet amazing people. It also gives you confidence and respect for yourself and everyone around you.

- Chloe Donahoe (The Giant, Cinderella's Mother, and Belle) Yes, I definitely think that young people should take part in community theater. You make so many new friends and memories. Also, after opening night, when the show is over you really feel like you've accomplished something. It's the greatest feeling in the world.

- Holly Smith (Rapunzel) - Of course, it's a really great experience, and one of the best things you can take from it are friendships, you can find people who share the same passion for theatre that you do.

- Cody Verbage (Rapunzel's Prince) - Of course, community theatre has shaped me into the individual I am today. I've made so many great friends through the process. My only regret is not starting sooner.

- Daniel King (Cinderella's Prince and Wolf 1) I would recommend this to anyone who loves music and would like to challenge theirself.

- Hannah Stevenson (Snow White) I totally recommend children taking part in these shows! They would want to do them all after just one.

- Chad Arthur (Cinderella’s Father) Yes, because it's a fun way to meet other people and learn more about yourself. Also, if your a very shy person, it helps you become more outgoing. The directors and producers are so fun to work with, that is one of the reasons I have stayed with theatre so long.

- Kiona Graley (The Woods) I would definitely recommend this to other young people because it is a challenge and in the end it is always really good and you feel proud of yourself.
