About this listen
Meet AJ Murphy, a musical theater junior whose real name is Anastasia Jasmine but whose personality is pure AJ. In this engaging conversation, Thomas and Josephine sit down with the Wisconsin native—hailing from Burlington, aka “Chocolate City”—to discuss her upcoming role in The Music Man production at the Jersey Shore.
AJ shares her thrilling experience going on as an understudy opening night for Young Frankenstein, when the principal actress came down with laryngitis. She opens up about her time with Kids from Wisconsin, a rigorous Broadway-style touring show that taught her to be quick on her feet, and reveals why she’s making the solo cross-country drive from Wisconsin to New Jersey (much to her dad’s disappointment).
From being dance captain to singing backstage while her castmate mouthed the words onstage, AJ brings infectious enthusiasm and a refreshing perspective on the joys and challenges of musical theater. Plus: why her small town smells like brownies three times a week, her upcoming half-marathon, and what makes the Jersey Shore the perfect summer theater destination.
