Introduce yourself to our audience.
Hi!! I’m Liv and I am in the ensemble!
What aspects of your character do you find most relatable or challenging to portray?
I think that because I do so many different tracks throughout the show, I find the bridesmaids track the most relatable. I love being able to portray having fun with my friends and supporting them- something I also love to do in real life! I would say that I find icon Cyndi Lauper most challenging to portray.
How do you prepare for a performance, both physically and mentally?
What Is your favorite moment or song in “The Wedding Singer” and why?
When did you first start performing?
I started performing in 8th grade!
What’s the last thing you do before you step out on stage / the curtain goes up?

What’s your favorite 80’s song/band/performer and why?

“A good-natured, harmless, high-energy knockoff of the 1998 Adam Sandler-Drew Barrymore romantic comedy” — LINDA WINER of NEWSDAY
“The Wedding Singer has more heart and a better sense of humor about itself than some of its similarly wacky, winking peers.” — ELYSA GARDNER of USA TODAY
