I think that the day Wicked comes out should be a day of celebration for the disability community.  We collectively have been asking for Nessarose to be authentic representation of the community and it has finally happened

My mom recently Asked me the question What is your Platform.  Find out my answer here.

Hi I’m Marie  Nicole Zimmerle.  I’m a  follower of Jesus, a podcast Host a singer a dancer and an advocate.  I have Cerebral Palsy and I have been living a life of self acceptance for four years.  It’s great to meet you.

Allow me to share a dream with you.  A dance studio where I train is decorated with posters from a number of my favorite musicals , I’m officially dreaming about someday, somehow being the first Elphaba who is actually green AKA has cerebral palsy And I also think that Mary Delgado in Jersey boys needs to be represented by somebody in the disability community because we are the toughest chicks around.

On Tuesday August 20th I had the pleasure of seeing my dear friend John Lloyd Young at the Catalina jazz club. As usual he was amazing.  I would be lying if I said I didn’t blush like a teenager when I see him on stage. The part of the  show I love the most is the meet and greet after the show.  It’s always wonderful catching up with him  . He is sweet and kind and genuinely makes an effort to find out what is going on in the life of his fans whom he calls his friends.
