“Sunset Boulevard” Acress Grace Hodgett Young starred in a Broadway show before seeing one.
After five months of acting six days a week in the musical, the post called “The most exciting show of Broadway in years”, finally experienced what it is to be at the audience of the Gran Vía Blanca.
“I know, it’s crazy … I could believe I made my debut on Broadway before seeing my first Broadway show,” said Young, 22, to the post.
“I saw the first, which was” Smash “, last Monday.”
Nottingham’s native, England, said she was “completely inspired” by the moment of the great apple par excellence.
“Taking a night to go to the theater is so exciting from the king,” he said.
His trip to Gotham to star in the musical, where he plays the main role of Betty Schaefer, an aspiring writer determined to do it in Hollywood, was the first time he visited New York and America, and was “absolutely terrified.”
“I was driving myself crazy, I will not lie to you.
“So being here now is crazy.”
During the duration of the show, in St. James Theater until July 13, he is living in Hell’s Kitchen, where the most important thing that he had to get used to was the “constant traffic current” out of the window.
“I have asked people in the cast, and to the team the way I can see that my window is known for bad traffic,” he said.
“Every day, without failing, it is only blocked with cars and people are burning their horn as if it were where to go and there really is no.”
The publication praised Young for his “strong” performance as Betty, which is in a disorderly love triangle with his fellow writer Joe Gillis, played by Tom Francis, and Normand Normand, an experienced Hollywood nuta played by former Pussycat Pussycat Pussycat
Young worked as a waitress in a London bar named Skylight when he auditioned for a narrower role as a whole.
However, its director Jamie Lloyd was so impressed with her, hey, he asked if he was available the next day to try Betty, which earned him a nomination for an Olivier award, the British equivalent of a Tony.
“I said, ‘yes’, and I wasn’t real [free] Because I had a turn in the bar, “he said, laughing.
The night before hearing, he had to live two of the program songs, written by the legendary composer Andrew Lloyd Webber, and the morning of “They taught me more songs at 11 in the morning and then I had to return to 2 and do the subject.”
Young received the call that had achieved the role while I was on the bus that was traveling home from a 12 -hour shift at the watering hole, where it was going to be promoted to Bartender.
“I was in the phase in which they were training me to be in the bar, but after receiving that call, I literally called my boss and thought:” I got a job. I have to go. “
