Hey guys, I'm Samantha Massell.
I'm here at Broadway Box and I'm singing
through my Broadway bucket list.
I hope you'll come here me at 54 Below

and January 21st at 9:30
with my amazing music director, John Bell.

This is Little Lamb from Gypsy.
My first introduction to Gypsy was the 2008 Revival.
I was there at the closing night of City Center,
and I totally geeked out.
I saw it on Broadway, I think four times,
and Louise is my number one dream role.
So, here it goes!

This is Julie Jordan from Carousel,
What's the Use of Wond'rin.
Carousel has always been one of my favorite shows,
and I think Julie Jordan is unexpectedly a strong woman
in a way that, maybe 2016 wouldn't have defined her as such.
And that's why she's included in my concert,
and that's why she's included on my Broadway bucket list.

In 1999, I was at Stagedoor Manor for my first summer,
and I was cast in my first ever full length musical,
which was Starmites, never to be done again at camp.
And I was an android and I really looked up to the girl
who sang this song, and I'm singing it at my concert.
It is a great song!
So, this is Superhero Girl from Starmites,
because duh! (laughing)
