Susan Blackwell is an American actress, writer and singer, best known for playing herself in the musical ''title of show''. She has appeared in other plays, musicals, and television shows including ''Law & Order'', ''P.S. I Love You'', and ''Speech and Debate''. She also hosts her own talk show ''Side by Side by Susan Blackwell'' on Broadway.com. ==Title of show== ''Title of show,'' which played on Broadway in the 2008 Season after a successful extended Off-Broadway run at the Vineyard Theatre in 2006. The musical documents its own creation by two Broadway fans, who want to enter the New York Musical Theatre Festival and struggle to complete the show in three and a half weeks, and their two actress friends. The actors are also the writers and characters of the musical. Blackwell's character, "Susan," is a quirky performer by night and corporate drone by day—what Blackwell calls a "distillation" of her true personality.〔Feldman, Adam. (quirky downtown theater actor ), ''Time Out New York'', 17 July 2008. Retrieved July 24, 2008.〕 Blackwell became involved in the musical's development early on, through her longstanding friendships with the show's writer, Hunter Bell, and composer, Jeff Bowen (who also star in the show, as "Hunter" and "Jeff"). Blackwell had worked with the two men as part of her previous Off-Off-Broadway performing duo, the New Wondertwins.〔Murrin, Tom. (Stagenotes: Five from Broadway to Way-Off Broadway ), September 2005. Retrieved July 24, 2008.〕 At the time Bowen and Bell began work on ''(of show )'', Blackwell had decided to abandon performing for a stable, corporate office job. "I feel really grateful to my friends for rescuing me," she has said of her role in ''(of show )''. "They airlifted me out of very corporate ascension and plopped me down into this whole other experience."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Susan Blackwell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
