By Alex Hilson The Globe Theatre premiered their production "He Sang, She Sang" at the Old Armoury in Georgetown on Thursday, April 5. The cabaret took many famous songs from musical theatre and put a twist on them through a gender switch-- women sang the men's parts and vice versa. "We're happy to facilitate this building and allow these people to flex their talented muscles and brains and fingers and bring quality entertainment to Georgetown," said Globe President Mark Llewellyn. Auditions were held in December and January. Rehearsals began at the end of January. "It's been a really interesting concept to flesh out the opposite gender," said Director Amanda Dwyer. "Just seeing everyone discover their character and how they could portray a song in such a different way. You know, women singing a man's song. The way they found the little bit of magic in their songs was incredible." "The big thing with a show like this is finding those moments that are funny because of the gender swap and those moments that are genuine and heartfelt," said JQ Smith, the Cabaret's choreographer. "Largely what I got to do is play with funny things. So just finding ways to make guys dance like girls and girls embrace their manhood." Choreography and music played an equal part in the show's delivery. Music Director David Bernacki had his work cut out for him. "When you sing songs normally meant for the oppos- ite gender, it's going to be a weird key. It's either going to be too high or too low. So you've either got to shift it up or down to match what we got. So that's a challenge especially if you have a guy and a girl singing."
