Friday is the first public performance for Shrek the Musical, and we’ve been running interviews with members of the cast!
Today let’s hear from Marin Brown, who plays the part of a fairy tale creature who’s known for running fast!
Q: Tell us about the cast of “Shrek.”
Marin: Honestly this has been one of the best casts I’ve ever worked with. It’s full of people who have done 10 million shows and for some this is their first. So, there’s someone with the same experience as everyone and it’s been amazing working with all of these awesome and talented individuals.
Q: What part do you play?
Marin: I play Gingy. I have loved playing this character because of how weird and funny he actually is. It’s definitely a change from watching Gingy in the movie and actually acting and portraying the character on a stage. It’s been such a great experience!
Q: If a kid is thinking about audition for a show, what advice would you give?
Marin: I would tell them to go for it! It’s so much fun and you get to meet so many wonderful people! The energy in the reversal space and especially in the actual theatre is something beyond words and I can’t imagine if I had never auditioned for my first show.
Thanks, Marin!
