Mandzik was among one of Ovation Theatre's two casts performing "Chicago."
"This has always been a dream role of mine, so I'm excited to finally to get to do it, especially (at Ovation) because I've been here for 10 years," she said.
Mandzik's favorite song to perform was her solo, "I Can't Do it Alone."
"It's one of the hardest numbers I've ever done in my career," she said. "It's so fun when you finally get the turn and the kick and it's all nailed."
Lakewood Ranch's Isabella Vizcaino and Lara Zoppe were thrilled to portray Annie and Mona, respectively, in the iconic "Cell Block Tango."
"I wasn't expecting to get a role," Zoppe said. "I thought I was just going to be in the ensemble. I didn't think I would actually be one of the murderesses, so it's cool that I have this opportunity because this is my first breakout role."
