Exclusive Interview: Keely Beirne of ‘Gotta Dance!’
Which classic musical films or Broadway shows did you grow up on? There are always at least a few that define us, theater lovers, sometimes becoming an integral part of our personality. To this day, I still watch The Sound of Music with Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer at least four times a year, because it fills me with so much joy, from the iconic songs to the impressive dance numbers. Well, what if there was a show that paid respect to those dance numbers from all your favorite classic musicals? That’s exactly what’s going on in Gotta Dance! and we had the absolute pleasure of speaking to one of the cast members, Keely Beirne!
In this exclusive BSB Insider interview, Beirne talks about her personal journey into acting and dancing, and how it eventually brought her to the stages of NYC. From performing in shows such as Aladdin and Moulin Rouge to now dancing eight times a week in Gotta Dance!, this actress discusses the excitement and challenges of her current role. What is her favorite number to perform (hint! one of them is classic starring Rita Moreno)? Listen to this exciting interview to find out all that and more!
