3) Share your funniest or worst audition moment

One of my worst audition moments was about two maybe three years ago. I was very excited to go and sing and do sides, but as I was waiting to go into the room I could hear the other auditioners and something didn't sound right. One by one they came out and then it was my turn. "Gregory," said the casting agent and my heart dropped to my butt. I had learned the song completely wrong! So I go into the room all the while wishing they would ask me to sing from my book first, but of course they say, "Alright let's start with the song we sent you." I still to this day don't exactly know what came or of my mouth but it wasn't pretty. Oh and this was in front of Alan Menken.

I would love play Black in Andrew Lippa's Wild Party. Or just originate a role for Mr. Lippa.

5) If you weren't a performer, what would you be?
