"I have been sending a special request/dream to the stars for years: 'Let me do a new musical by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens someday.' Well, here it is! Not only is it happening but the role has been modified and the keys of the songs have all been changed to fit my voice. I am over the moon!" said Louise Pitre in an exclusive interview. "I had 2 sessions with Stephen Flaherty and David Loud after they offered me the role. Stephen said he wanted all this music to "fit me like a glove". That is a gift. Stephen and Lynn are both so approachable and always there and willing to talk and discuss. It is the most positive atmosphere!"

Check back tomorrow for the full interview!
