Student Blogger: Leah Fridman

First Show

Cats: I saw the revival on Broadway and it blew my mind. I had always loved the 1997 London recording and getting the chance to see the show live and revived was such a beautiful experience. I am a Cats the Musial lover forever and ever.

Favorite Show

American Idiot: I saw a production of American Idiot at Cultural Arts Playhouse in Syosset, Long Island which completely rekindled and renewed my love for theater. I've been obsessed with the show, and the cast album ever since.

Favorite Stories

• Student Blog: Theater is Knowledge and Knowledge is Power - This is my first ever article as a student blogger! I spent a lot of time really working through, drafting, and polishing this work because it was my debut, and because I knew I wanted to anchor the rest of my pieces off of it.
• Student Blog: I Fear Something's Rotten in The State of Denmark - Shakespeare is at the core intersection of both of my majors and boy do I love talking about it.

• Student Blog: One Last Time (maybe) (possibly) (probably no) - Its my first article of my second year as a student blogger! I love this program and all the opportunities it has given me
