My Cousin - The Musical Star
Musicals, the Gals were brought up on them and LOVE them. Who wouldn't want to live in a world where you spontaneously break out into song and dance? Unfortunately, both Gals were not "blessed" with the gift of vocal talent...in the least. We can cut a mean rug, though!
The musical legacy does run in Margaret's family. Meet Madge's ultra darling and charismatic cousin Betsy...or as she fondly refers to her as "Betsy-licious," starring as Annie in the ever lovable musical.
In honor of Betsy's most amazing accomplishment, dedication, and hard work; we have decided to share two of our favorite musical numbers.
Jenny adores Les Miserables, her obsession started at a young age when her mother was learning French. I've been to many a bonfire at Jenny's house where Les Mis was blasting at ungodly high decibels. Nothing says a good bonfire like Les Mis.
Jenny's Musical Pick - Bring Him Home
Margaret started dancing at an early age, mainly focusing on ballet and tap. I appreciate any theatrical performance involving dance--it takes a lot chutzpah! Due to my father's obsession with Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra, I was introduced to On the Town--a fabulous yet relatively unknown musical. Throw in the mad tap dancing skills of Ann Miller and you are in a musical heaven!
Madge's Musical Pick - Prehistoric Man
I could not be more proud of my spunky cousin! Although I won't be there--I will be thinking of you!
Break a leg, Licious--I love you girly!!
