I was just in awe, I think of the size of it and meeting all of these people who had become a really big part of my life.
JULIANNA ROSE MAURIELLO FULL
It was this big warehouse full of people, full of these huge set. It was snowing and we got to Keflavik airport and there's all these lava fields and so we got in a taxi and I turned to my mom when I said "it looks like we're on the moon." I was in shock, and then arriving to the set. While I was in my second show on Broadway, which was Gypsy, I auditioned for LazyTown and at the time I knew very little about it but I knew that it was filming in Iceland, it was a kids show and I had my audition like any normal audition and they eventually made their decision and then within a month I was packing up my apartment with my mom and we were moving to Iceland. That was the first show I did, Oklahoma!, and I was ten years old and I was performing in New york every night, 8 shows a week, and then suddenly I was kinda living out this childhood dream. And I remember being in my room and just singing all the songs and my mom coming in and she was just like "wow you're just a natural at this" and I told her (I think I told her when I was 5) I said "I wanna be on broadway mom", and we decided together that if we were really serious about this and this is something that I really wanted to do that we had to go into the city and so I got an agent and she sent me on an audition and I booked a show. I remember being 5 years old and I had seen a performance of My Fair Lady in my town. I'm Julianna Mauriello and I'm from Pleasantville, NY
And then I just got the call from my agent and I jumped from my bed, to my floor, to my bed, to my floor, and just ran around my room for about ten minutes screaming and I was so ecstatic I just couldn't believe that this is happening. I remember the audition process took a long time, and so after two weeks I had kind of giving up and thought that they had chosen somebody else.
