On this episode I talked with Megan about her childhood dream to be a popstar like Britney Spears, the moment she saw her first theatre show and realized she could live out those popstar dreams in a way and perform for an audience on stage in musicals, her experience in the theatre department at Brigham Young University and what made their theatre program appealing to her, getting cast in Wicked as Nessarose shortly after graduating, the first cast she ever got to see in Wicked (Eden Espinosa as Elphaba and Deedee Magno Hall as Nessa), the acting choices she made to display the journey that Nessarose goes through in Wicked, what makes Wicked so special, her audition for Mean Girls, why the rehearsal process for the Mean Girls Tour was special, how she brings herself to Gretchen, and MUCH MORE!
