Michael Perrie Jr. was that kid in youth theatre: The one who lived for a laugh and always had to learn the hard way. Fast-forward 18ish years, and his comedic daring has made him not only a successful performer but a gifted composer/lyricist/librettist as well. Join us for this trip down memory lane in which both Perrie and host Sally Fuller revisit some of their summer theatre camp days, favorite interviews, and more. Check out our show notes with some photos from these shows we're talking about on TheBroadwayGinger.com!
