Susan in 'Finian's Rainbow'

Finian's Rainbow

by Harburg & Lane

May 1981: College Amateur Operatic Society

Director: Jenny Cresswell | Choreographer: John Beaveridge | Musical Director: Geoffrey Timms

I loved being in this show, apart from the frustrating fact that my character - Susan - spends 90% of the show dumb, and expressing her feelings through her dancing! I would sing along with the chorus numbers from off-stage, and make the most of joining in with the final choruses (by which time the leprechaun had wished my voice back for me...)
