"If I can not dance, I shall die!" -Anna Pavlova









I shot the LOVELY Mia the other day and Jamie came along too whining and complaining but I managed to get him to pose for a couple shots as well.   I think they turned out really good!

As for my fair lady audition call backs and then EVEN second call backs and such... I did NOT get Eliza, however I am in the musical in the ensemble.  I am a little disappointed but at the same time I am very happy how well I did in the auditions and call backs.  I really did my personal best!  And it was a big compliment and honor to be one of the three girls to be seriously considered for such a big lead. Plus being in the ensemble lets me have time to really work on basic vocal techniques as well as DANCE a lot hopefully!   I cant wait to meet all the people in the cast and I am really psyched for a great run!
In all it was a really great first week of college having opportunity to audition for a lead! =)

How are all of you doing?

love

Audition weekend #1 : My Fair Lady

Picture from google search


I got done with auditions (for NOW).  And it has been such a great experience for me! The more auditions I go to the better for my future Broadway career! <3 

On Saturday I had my first audition and it went very well, I sang tonight, and they must have thought I was good because I got a call back for vocals! 
So today I went to the call backs and was in a group with maybe five other girls and they made us sing three of Eliza's songs from the musical.  Wouldn't it be loverly (my favorite), I could have danced all night, and Show me.  Then we performed them on stage.  I did pretty good with those too and they I did some cold readings in my cockney Eliza accent.
It seems it was a very successful audition because today I was with the last group of people to leave and they said they will probably need to do second call backs so we will stay posted! I will let you know more about how it goes! 

As for my singing!  It went better and better, the first time nerves can get the best of me but after I am on stage for a bit I just relax more and more.  The only things nerves do to my voice is make it a little more shakey on the long holds. 


Love Sigrid 
Happy four minutes to Monday!

Tonight, tonight

SOOOOO I have picked an audition song! Finally! Well my fabulous new voice teacher Susan helped :)
TONIGHT! From West Side Story!  Simple, clean, and good in range!

Other things that are new with me would have to be my growing and growing obsession with Shirley Jones, every time I see Oklahoma or anything she is in I just love her more! She is stunningly beautiful, can sing like a song bird, and makes me happy!

Other news... Oh I sprained my ankle... really bad... first time in my life.  You'd think me being a dancer and all that it would have happened more but it hasn't! I was dancing at the studio and then I landed wrong and skidded my foot and it curled and popped and all sorts of ugly things!  Its all bruised and ugly and I went to the doctor to get an equally ugly chunky boot to keep me from dying when I walk on it! Perfect timing what with auditions coming up in a week... UGH!!! 

DoNOT feel sorry for me though, I will have none of that! chin up & moving forward to the next topic! 


My new youtube video: 
Made it today!




Happy End of Summer, I dont know about u, but for me school starts on MONDAY! I am nervous! 


Love,  Sigrid

Billy Elliot the Musical



We were born to booogie! <3 

One of the best scenes <3 

Kylend Hetherington


So the show was amazing! :) we got cheap rush tickets and good seats! <3 I have to say it was everything and more that I had hoped it would be!  I laughed cried and was totally hypnotized by the dancing.  Such a beautiful stage production! And the billy I saw; Kylend Hetherington, was amazing.  He was such a cutie, and he could dance beautifully and sing and act.  I loved him, and I was seriously jealous that he was getting a standing ovation for a lead roll in a Broadway show at the age of thirteen! NO FAIR! But then again he deserves it! Great show! AHHHH GREAT SHOW!!!!!

for those of you who don't know, I am obsessed with broadway musical t-shirts! Every show I have gone to I have a t-shirt for, EXCEPT the littler mermaid, and my first show, Phantom. :'( gonna have to get those. :) Glad to add this one to my collection! <3

In the heat of the night the whole group of the wedding party sat outside under a covered area and ate a beautiful dinner whilst admiring the lightning! (all pics taken by me of course! (it took a while to get good shots))!!!




me being to lazy to edit out those annoying lights in the lightning shots... sorry :) haha
No picture stealing please <3

A MOMENTOUS DAY! I FOUND MY FAVORITE BALLET!

Alice's Adventures In Wonderland! 
Choreography: Christopher Weeldon! (one of my favorite choreographers)
Score by: Jody Talbot!
Year: 2011






photos from tumblr and google images

I love this ballet more than any other ballet I have ever seen because, it is a great story of Alice, fantasy full and fun which I love (it's very meee), the best ballet score I have ever heard.  Beautiful costumes and scenery! And astounding modern and classic choreography all jumbled up in a strangely aesthetically pleasing way thanks to Mr. Weeldon! <3 He just always seems to impress me and leave me breathless with his work! God I love him!  The colors and funniness of the ballet is wonderful! It truly looks like a wonderland.  ( I love the Queen Of Hearts Too)!!! Her dance is the best! (last picture).


                                                  




WATCH IT!!!!!!! NOW!!!!! YOU ARE ONLINE!!!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!! BEST BALLET!
