Three dream roles have so far eluded Linedy Genao. The star of The Great Gatsby might be plenty busy playing 'Myrtle Wilson' eight times a week at the Broadway Theatre, but her heart is set on playing these three characters someday. So cast her already!

"I resonate so much with [her] because she's fun, she's quirky. I grew up in a really strict household, just like [her]. She's boxed in... so to see her flourish at the end is something that I love and something that I aspire to be able to do, because I'm still a little bit boxed in sometimes!" Can you guess which character she's talking about?

In this episode, Linedy is joined by Dave Klodowski at the beautiful Laurie Beechman Theatre to sing through the roles that she hopes to play one day. Watch in this video!

Linedy was named to Variety’s prestigious “Actors to Watch” list, making history as the first Latina to originate a leading role in an Andrew Lloyd Webber Broadway musical. Broadway: Bad Cinderella, On Your Feet!, Dear Evan Hansen.
