TV: Meet the Company of Grove Theatre's WELCOME TO MY WORLD

Following a critically acclaimed world premiere opening September 12th at Burbank, California's Grove Theatre Center, Welcome to My World starring Sami Staitman has been extended through October 4th at the Grove Theatre in Burbank, CA. BroadwayWorld TV's own Michael Sterling was on hand for the opening to talk to the young Ms. Staitman; close friend and Disney Channel series star Corey Fogelmanis (Girl Meets World); and the show's Grammy Nominated Producer/Director/Writer/Composer Bruce Kimmel. The first ever one-girl musical written for and about a fourteen-year-old, has also just completed recording sessions for the Kritzerland Records release of the show which will feature all 14 songs from the score, plus a bonus track of "Everything is Going to be Alright" recorded by Fogelmanis who, during opening weekend, was on hand for a private Meet & Greet with fans who supported the production.

Welcome to My World takes you into the world of a bright, funny, irreverent and iconoclastic young girl named Molly, who has her own very unique way of looking at things and life. Through a series of monologues and songs, we learn all about what makes her tick, what her views are on any number of topics, and how she navigates herself through the sometimes tortuous territory that is teen life.

Kimmel and Staitman have worked together in productions of his World-Premiere Anthony Newley/Leslie Bricusse musical revue, Pure Imagination (at the Pacific Resident Theatre); his critically acclaimed production of Li'l Abner; his hit web series Outside The Box (seen exclusively on BroadwayWorld.com); and in Kimmel's highly popular, longtime Kritzerland composer tribute series at Sterling's Upstairs at The Federal.
