10 years ago, as a fresh graduate of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, I had the extraordinary honor of making my professional debut in Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Woman in White, opposite one Anthony Andrews. He was a perfect leading gentleman, and this show is a dream come true for us. [NOTE: we both wore a *lot* of makeup in The WiW...]

Here we are before the big season opener. That would be 11,000 seats. No pressure...

Our fearless leader (and MUNY veteran) Marc Bruni welcomes the cast on the first day of rehearsal in the "Music Room"

Look: there are only so many reasons a girl plays Eliza Doolittle. 1. The hats. 2. The outfits 3. ... the...well, the role.

Rehearsing in the outdoor West Pavilion must be what it is like rehearsing the talent show IN HEAVEN.

You really should hear Matthew Scott sing that gorgeous stalker ditty.

The Muny's incredible scenic artists created 80 hand-painted paintings for Professor Higgins' study.
Alexandra Silber
This was what it all looked like as it came together...
Alexandra Silber
...And here those paintings are on Tim Mackabee's glorious set.

"HA HA HA--" or, rehearsal dignity.

Opening night, our amazing team ran the three and a half hour show in the blazing Missouri sun! There were hats and umbrellas and rain and LOTS OF FEELINGS.

Ben Whitely passionately conducts our luscious 27 piece orchestra. This sure was one incredible sitzprobe!
Alexandra Silber
Only at The Muny do you get two "shows" at once--sometimes nature sure is "loverly..."

ASCOT: Or, costume dreams come true....

Michael McCormick: THEATRICAL TREASURE

Sometimes we have to stop for the rain. The rain in Spain stays mainly on the... stage. But that means 'Showstop Photo-op!'
Alexandra Silber
We might have finished the show at 1am (and made MUNY history!) but rain delays also lead to incredible theatrical storytime in my dressing room with these gorgeous legends.
Alexandra Silber
This is Paxton Whitehead. He is playing Colonel Pickering LIKEABOSS. He is a theatrical legend and has the world's best one-liners. He also wore this pink straw hat for the entirety of tech.
Alexandra Silber
Look: Matthew Scott trained hard at Carnegie Mellon University. So we took this rain pause to keep sharp with Zip zap zop, trust falls and mirror exercises. In Cardinals hats. (Because, St. Louis.)
Alexandra Silber
Evidence of our comedic sharpness. Thanks acting exercises!
Alexandra Silber
Opening Night glory with this beautiful cast!

After 10 years of friendship, I've grown accustomed to his face!
