Article Abstract:

Rhea Patterson, a student in Goucher's master’s program in arts administration, discusses the roles she plays as a cast member of the Broadway musical Wicked and her career in theater and dance.

Lead:

And during those five years Rhea Patterson, who’s currently a member of Wicked’s Broadway cast, danced her first steps—and sang her first notes—in a musical.
