Sadler Selby

Song Title & Show Name: "Round-Shouldered Man" from The Secret Garden

Short Bio:
Hi, I'm Sadler Selby and I am a self-proclaimed theater nerd. I'm in the 7th grade and I love singing, dancing and performing and have had the amazing opportunity to perform in some of Thalian Association's amaing shows. I miss theater a lot right now as the pandemic has really put a damper on that but I feel that intermission is OVER and excited to see live theater again and hopefully be able to perform really soon!! Thank you for supporting the arts!!

Why did you pick this song?
I picked Round-Shouldered Man because it is a very beautiful written piece and captures the bright imagination of a young child. It's also a song that is really good for my voice range.

Short Bio:
I was born in CT, moved to Carolina Beach when I was three, and I currently reside in Wilmington, NC. I started taking some acting classes with my sister before the pandemic and enjoy music. I just saw Wicked for the first time a week ago in Charlotte. I love to play with my Bakugans and Beyblades, swim, watch movies, travel, and spend time with my family and friends. I want to be a paleontologist when I grow up.

Why did you pick this song?
I like this scene from Wicked.

Why did you pick this song?
I created this video for SMAST because it is a beautiful song that I had the privilege of watching Stephanie Mills perform, it is my sister's favorite song, and it is the last song my husband (may he rest in peace) told me I should sing.
