Hi, I'm Kyle Selig.
I play Aaron Samuels in Mean Girls on Broadway
and this is my Broadway Bucket List.
(upbeat music)
My first song is Run Freedom Run from Urinetown
and for this Broadway Bucket List,
I tried to choose songs that have been with me
for a really long time and that sort of
reveals my sort of weird taste in musicals.
I think is what it turns into.
And this song was actually
my first high school audition song.
It sort of felt like the start of everything so enjoy.

My next song is Always There Not One Maiden Breast
from Pirates of Penzance and it's a weird choice for sure.
But I growing up watched this movie over and over again
and I loved it and it's so funny
so this song is he's singing to about 15 to 20 women,
like the entire ensemble from the musical
and I think that there could be a really cool 2020
really weird production of it and I think it's time.

My final song is Marry Me A Little from Company
and I was obsessed with Company in high school
and tried to sing all the songs from it in college
and all the teachers would say,
"Yeah but you're like a little young for it."
And now that I'm getting older, I feel like I can finally
be grounded in myself to watch Katrina Lenk
play it on Broadway.
And that's gonna be enough for me.
