💫Swing Big💫 VGF is proud to encourage and help the arts through our new initiative “Operation: Shooting Star.” Very Gary was able to provide Hamlin Middle School Theatre with a Q&A with Broadway Star Heidi Blickenstaff in preparation for their performance of “Something Rotten Jr.” Blickenstaff originated the role of Bea on Broadway and during the Q&A answered students’ questions on auditions, education pathways, and how always to show up and have fun as the best version of you. She told the students to “swing big” when it comes to their acting choices and their lives. Thank you very much to Heidi for shining her light on our aspiring thespians.
