S. went directly to work as a rehearsal pianist for off Bway and Bway shows  and in 1975 started conducting musicals on Bway and on the road. . .A Chorus Line, A Little Night Music, They're Playing Our Song, Evita, Phantom of the Opera. Relocated in Los Angeles in 1984 and have been working as a conductor for various people and orchestrating on films and  Bway shows.  Recently "ghosted" orchestrations for THE PRODUCERS on Bway and the film of CHICAGO.

I played the "Accordion" in PA, graduated and got married. Five years later had a wonderful daughter and now I have two Grandsons. Went to NYU in the 90's and graduated Dean's List 4.0! Took me a long time to get to college- but I'm glad I did it that way. I played professionally in the 80's and 90's after I was divorced. After NYU became very involved in Technology and have been working full time with the Web and all areas of database design.

Following High School went on to do shows. Sing in night clubs.. worked on cruise ships. Directed..Then in 1973 met someone who perked my interest in Physical Therapy. Have been doing Physical Therapy for over thirty years and I love it!. I incorporate my theatrical background with my work...Theater will always be a part of my life, as I grew up in a show biz family...I got married in 1974 and have two wonderful boys...One 23, and the other 17...Both with musical and dance talents. but pursuing other interests as well. Would love to hear from you. to catch up and share memories... Melody

After graduating from our beloved PA in June of 1969, I went on to Hunter College and majored in psychology. After graduating from Hunter in 1973, I moved to Arizona to attend Arizona State University for a master's degree in Educational Psychology. I fell in love with Arizona, and have been living here ever since. I'm due to retire from the State of Arizona in June 2004, after 28 years of service.

I have always cherished my 3 years at PA, and to this day clearly remember, and treasure the memory of, my audition day in 1966. PA is, without question, one of the most wonderful experiences of my life.

I married about 3 years after graduation. I gave up my dancing, but I have never regretted it. I have 3 wonderful children ages 30, 24 and 22.


I am working as a teaching assistant in a kindergarten in Westchester, where I live. I sometimes think of those 4 years at PA and the wonderful times I had there. I wouldn't change anything for the world!!! Here's to all of us who passed those auditions and became Performing Arts alumni!!!!
