BWW Interviews: MARY POPPINS' Caroline Sheen

Your debut album, "Raise The Curtain," was released on February 1st. Can you tell us about the album?

I'm really proud of the album and it was a really exciting experience for me. I had a great time choosing the songs, once I had decided on the direction I wanted to take then the song choices came easily. I am very passionate about the future of musical theatre and wanted to do something more than just put my favorite audition songs on the record! So, I had the idea to use the album as a showcase for a lot of new writers, most of whom I know and have worked with. Hopefully, it argues a good case, that the future of musicals is safe in their hands! I have some great American composers on the album; Adam Guettel, Georgia Stitt, Jason Robert Brown and more, but I have also included some great new British talent as well, so hopefully an American audience will become aware of their talents too. Spreading the love from across the pond!
