![]() Welcome to our second installment of our Mikado cast interview series! We're happy to have Kayla Cummings as our featured cast member today. Welcome, Kayla! What's your role in The Mikado? Chorus What made you decide to get involved with Mikado? By being a part of this amazing production, it will complete my ultimate Gilbert and Sullivan experience with Pirates of Penzance in 2014, H.M.S. Pinafore in 2016, and now The Mikado! What are you enjoying most about working on Mikado with VLOC? As time goes by, each one of us develop our own character and it impacts how we are seen on stage along with the interactions with others. It is very fun to see what sort of antics some of us will get into. What is your dream role/job? Perform beside well known opera singers on the big stage like the MET or the Kennedy Center. What is the first musical/opera/play you ever saw and what effect did it have on you? My first musical I saw was Phantom of the Opera when I was 7 and my first opera was La Boheme at 13. Phantom of the Opera was what made me go into music education in the very beginning. I originally wanted to go into musical theatre but when I saw one of Luciano Pavarotti"s tapes in La Boheme, I instantly flipped to opera, due to the fact of the joy of learning new languages, and a bunch more. When you're not performing in community theatre, what do you do? (job, hobby, family, etc.) I am preparing for college in the fall! Thanks Kayla, and best of luck in college after The Mikado! Do you have your tickets to see the show yet? It runs June 9th - 18th, so don't miss out! Get your tickets online HERE or by calling the F. Scott Fitzgerald box office at 240-314-8690.
