Usually when performers are trying to "sell themselves" they use the label "triple threat." A trio of talents that instantaneously implies the great potential this performer has. Generally the trio consists of acting, singing and dancing. In fact, I don't think you would ever combine another combination. The "triple threat" is seen as the ultimate competition; the best it gets; the gift of the acting gods. Well, ladies and gentlemen, it gets better.
Oh so often the other aspects of performance are over-looked. Instrumentalists! That's right, the people who play the expensive instruments are performers too. Then there are the directors, music directors and choreographers. Not a single show in production can do without one or all of these.
So let's break this down in relation to moi. I am an actor...threat 1. I am a singer...threat 2. I am dancer...threat 3. Here's where it gets good. I am an instrumentalist (I can play almost anything you put in front of me)...threat 4. I direct, music direct and choreograph (so, not only can I apply all of the aforementioned skills, I can also teach and direct others to do so)...threat 5.
Therefore, in essence, I am a quintuple threat. A penta-tastic combination of talent.
