Shea McMahon has apparently had beef with me for months and this only came to light when we shared the stage during A CHRISTMAS CAROL at CM Performing Arts Center - so I’m absolutely *chuffed* that she decided to spend some time with me on The Kyle Petty Show! Here’s a bit of what we chatted about:

🎭 Everything Cats at CM Performing Arts Center! From her attachment to the show, to the rehearsal process, all the way to her inspiration for the set design!

⭐️ Her experience performing for children and why it resonates with her

👀 A bit about her experience thus far in Descendants at The Argyle Theater

❎ The disparity between how Children’s Theater performers are treated vs Mainstage performers

🎲 A little “This or That”

🎭 Some favorite/funny theater memories

You’ll hear this in the conversation but my cheeks hurt after this one! I had an absolute blast and I’m so glad Shea has forgiven me 😂 thank you again for spending the time with me and thank you all for supporting The Kyle Petty Show and live theater here on Long Island! 💜
