I did a lot of community theatre when I was younger, but I haven't been in a play in a long time. I'd love to get back into it, but I don't have a good venue available to me right now. *shrugs*

Yay theater-ness! I think I've been behind the scenes more often than not. Lots of musicals.
Hmm... favorite plays - Arms and the Man, No Exit, The Glass Menagerie, Bodas de Sangre, Othello, some stuff by Euripedes and Sophocles, Ring Around the Moon, Stones in his Pockets.
Musicals - Jeckel & Hyde, Rent, Spamalot, Avenue Q, The Producers, Songs for a New World, Guys and Dolls, Les Mis...

I've only taken part in one play, that was Annie. I prefer to help set up the stage or costume, I also used to be able to act as assistant director. I haven't had time to do any of that anymore, it was fun while it lasted.

I love CanStage, a local theatre company. Every summer they do a Shakepeare play in a park. They always get great local actors. Once they did As You Like It set as a fifties musical. I saw it five times!

I'm going to a rehearsal in 30 minutes...
We're doing Once Upon a Mattress (Princess and the Pea spoof-thing.)
I can't say I have a favorite production. Not at the moment.

My favorite genre is musicals. My favorite musicals are rent, phantom of the opera, and the producers. I also love the music from wicked(I am currently listening to it), but I haven't been able to see it yet.
