Moving Up To RRS 2014: Colin Thoman

Each year we have a group of kids that have gone through our JR Rising Stars program who are now old enough to move up to our RRS Teen program.

Today we introduce you to Colin Thoman – a former JR moving up to our teen program.

How do you feel about joining the teen program?

I am happy about it because I have good friends who are moving up along with me. The shows seem to be more challenging, and rigorous.

What do you think is expected of you now that you’re no longer a JR. ?

The choreography and vocal commitment will be more difficult. Rehearsals are longer so I will have to be very prepared.

What was your favorite RRS show and why?

I have seen Footloose, Pajama Game, Hairspray, Rent, 42nd Street, and All Shook Up, and my favorite show was Footloose because I thought the acting and music was great. The acrobatics and choreography were amazing.

What are you most concerned about?

I am concerned about getting through the long rehearsals, but that is my only concern, otherwise I am looking forward to the experience.
