Mother Gothel • International Tour
FEATURED PRESS
Getting cast in an international tour is a huge thrill for any performer. You get to see the world and share your passion with foreign audiences. You'll enjoy many moments but also face challenges that come with continuous travel. While touring Japan, here are some tips I picked up along the way.
On Tuesday, my conductor, Brad, and I had a marathon day of four interviews at the Harmony Japan office. We met with E-Plus Ticket Agency, Tokorozawa Muse Ark Hall, Clara Ballet Magazine and Disney Fan Magazine. Brad reunited with journalists who have interviewed him for over a decade while I became acquainted with the different agencies.
As I settled into Shibuya, I was fascinated by Tokyo’s meticulous, color-coded transit system. Taxicab doors open automatically. Steering wheels are on the right side and people drive on the left. Pedestrians adhere to traffic rules and walk on the left on escalators and subway walkways.
It was a particularly busy day in midtown Manhattan. I completed three auditions, a Shakespeare coaching session, and saved the best appointment for last. I was called in for Disney On Classic, (DOC) a concert tour in Japan that features eight singers and a 60-piece symphonic orchestra.
