Sara Ramirez, who plays Callie Torres on Grey’s Anatomy, stopped by Good Morning America Wednesday to give New York a preview of what’s to come on this Thursday’s musical version of the show.
Before you join in on the worldwide cringe the idea of a musical version of Grey’s Anatomy will no doubt inspire, put your Cop Rock flashbacks aside.
Ramirez, who performed Brandi Carlile’s “The Story” on Good Morning America, actually has a theater background, and she can sing–she’s got the Tony Award to prove it.
Ramirez, 35, had been a fan of the show back in her theater days and it was on stage during her performance in Spamalot where ABC executives had originally seen her, before asking her to join the show.
Ramirez’s songs are available for download on iTunes, including “The Story” and three original songs.
Grey’s Anatomy: The Musical Event will air Thursday on ABC at 9 p.m. Eastern Time.
