Q&A: Crofton Middle 'Music Man' Star Timothy Kandra

"The Music Man" debuted at Crofton Middle School on March 8 and in preparation for the show Patch caught up with several members of the cast.

Eighth-grader Timothy Kandra spoke with Patch about the show and why you should make sure you have tickets.

Crofton Patch: What is your character or role in the production?
Timothy Kandra: I play Professor Harold Hill.

Crofton Patch: What is your favorite part of the show or why should people come see it?
Timothy: "The Sadder But Wiser Girl for Me" because it is a clever dance and it will make people laugh.  Also, "Trouble" because I like singing the fast song. 

Crofton Patch: What is your favorite show or musical you have ever seen or heard performed?
Timothy: Oh, that's a hard one. Music Man, the original movie with Robert Preston, of course, but Seussical the Musical was so much fun because there was so much dancing and singing going on. It was fun to watch.

Crofton Patch: What do you like to do besides performing?
Timothy: I review movies on YouTube and on my website and I also recently began recording podcasts. I also like to play basketball and spend time with my friends and family.

Crofton Patch: What do you want to be when you grow up?
Timothy: That's easy. I want to be a movie director. I am going to the Performing and Visual Arts Magnet High School for film next year, so hopefully I will achieve my goal.

"The Music Man" will run March 15-17 at Crofton Middle. Those interested in purchasing tickets can do so by emailing CMStickets@gmail.com. Tickets are $7 a person.
