Exclusive Interview: RJ Miller-Zelinko and Emily Brown of Avon Players’ ‘The Prince of Egypt’

The theater season here in Michigan is finally heating up, and we couldn’t be more excited! Kicking off our personal season here at Box Seat Babes is The Prince of Egypt, the musical, arriving this weekend at Avon Players in Rochester Hills, Michigan! This stage production, based on the 1990s DreamWorks film, tells the story of Moses and Ramses, rival brothers trapped in a prophetic dance unlike any other. We recently spoke with two of the cast members, RJ Miller-Zelinko and Emily Brown, about their time on this production and what drew them to audition!
In this exclusive Box Seat Babe Interview, RJ Miller-Zelinko is sitting on the other side of the metaphorical desk, along with one of his costars from The Prince of Egypt, Emily Brown, to discuss the work they are doing on this exciting musical. Both Miller-Zelinko and Brown have a history with the material, beginning with the DreamWorks animated film in their childhood, which has led them to this moment here at Avon Players! Using the Pro-Shot of the West End production of the musical, Avon Players is creating theater magic through the use of their ensemble and the dedication to telling this story right. These cast members discuss how the theater is achieving the visual and musical notes, and why this show is so special for all involved!
