Musical Theater Review Of Damien Alix-Souhabi
The American Musical and Dramatic Academy

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Damien Alix-Souhabi, an Alum of The American Musical and Dramatic Academy, and a 26 year old native of Montreal, QC, Canada. I met Alix-Souhabi through Facebook, but knew who he was since we went to the same institution together. Through the wonders of YouTube, I was able to watch some of Alix-Souhabi's Cabaret performances, and his showcase performances. If there is one piece of information you can take away from this, it's that Alix-Souhabi is a phenomenal performer. From his voice to the specificity in his actions to the way he presents himself on stage, Alix-Souhabi is on his way to the top.

In Alix-Souhabi's showcase performance at AMDA, Alix-Souhabi performed "All I Care About" from the Broadway musical, Chicago. Alix-Souhabi also sang "People Like Us" from The Wild Party, which is a musical set in the 1920's. Both of Alix-Souhabi's performances were exceptional to say the least. In Alix-Souhabi's performance of "All I Care About" I found that he is incredibly magnetic and he takes complete control of his stage. Also, the way he transforms from Damien to the character he is portraying shows how dynamically versatile he is. In his duet, "People Like Us", he has a great connection with not only his movement but with his scene partner. The chemistry between the two actors was clearly shown.

In the past year, Alix-Souhabi performed at "Let's Broadway Cabaret Series!" At this specific cabaret, Alix-Souhabi sang "Guido's Song" from the Broadway musical, Nine. In the other two "Let's Broadway Cabaret Series!" Alix-Souhabi performed "Once In Love With Amy" from the 1948 musical, Where's Charley? The other piece performed was "Sue Me" from Guys and Doll's. The emotion behind this piece was intense to say the least. Alix-Souhabi showcased the many emotions of the character of Nathan in a matter of a few minutes. In all of his pieces that he performed, Alix-Souhabi has proved that he will have a phenomenal career.

To conclude, Alix-Souhabi is on my top ten list of the best up and coming performers. Alix-Souhabi is a dedicated and hard worker towards his craft. He takes his work very seriously and has set goals in mind to get to where he wants to go in his career. With all of his intensive training and his amazing work ethic, I believe that he is set to start performing on a big time stage.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
