Everyone but me in our immediate family either now acts or has acted.
Most notable is our oldest daughter who is now rehearsing for Children of Eden. She has been Martha in The Secret Garden three times including once in high school which was a main stage performance at the International Thespian Festival. She was The Baker's Wife in Into the Woods -- and married the guy who played The Baker. He is an actor/director/choreographer working at a lot of local theatres. She has also appeared in a number of other musicals and reviews like Nunsense and Taffetas. Her credits are too lengthy to list.
Our son had several leads in high school productions, including Adam in Children of Eden (Freshman), Puck in Puck's Potion (a remarkably good original musical written as a Master's thesis by two members of the Performing Arts Department at his HS as a Junior) and Ren in Footloose (Senior). He recently played his first role in university theatre in A Little Night Music. He has also been Jack in Into the Woods and Colin in The Secret Garden in community theatre. He also won Solo Vocal Musical Theatre awards at both the Colorado and International Thespian Festivals his Sophomore and Seniors years in High School, and Duet Musical Theatre his Junior year in the Colorado competition. Needless to say, he wants to perform on Broadway.
Mrs. DeltAlum has a Theatre degree and did a lot of high school and college theatre, as well as summer stock work early in our marriage (before kids).
Our middle daughter did high school theatre, but was more interested in athletics.
I'm the only one in the family with absolutely no musical or acting talent.
