<p>Everyone is SO right, all types are needed-even in college they have to cast their own shows. And how would Hairspray ever have been cast if every non-ingenue type had given up the dream? MT or straight theatre, especially for females, keep in mind there’s usually ONE pretty thin romantic type of girl, rarely more in a play. And some types wont’ do well until they’re in their 30s or beyond, because that’s what they’ll fit best-and then the ingenues will have a hard time!<br>
This is my business and I know, being a good type does matter, but WHICH good type does not. All are needed or you don’t have a cast!</p>
