Haven't done a showtune in a while. I've been thinking about it a lot recently and I've rarely had a moment in my life where something tough was NOT happening, and when you live a life like that you find specific ways to heal. For me it's always been the creative and performing arts, I dreamed and trained for musical theater my entire life up til the age of 21. As a plus size woman of color I realized that I didn't feel like there was a place for me in the casting process, now being a wheelchair user, feel it much more. But my jaw has been suffering and EDS (or age, or anything else, really) might take my voice one day, so I just want to log my favorite songs while I can. The Last Five Years was my Hamilton in 2005, the show I had forever on repeat and cried to it all the time. I always thought as a plus size woman of color, I would never in my lifetime be considered to play the role of Kathy, and then I saw Cynthia Erivo sing this song this past weekend, and just cried my eyes out, to see her perform that on the stage.So this is the first showtune I will be singing since my showtune hiatus... please be kind, haha.
