Was it ever explained why Alyson didn't do any dancing for the Buffy musical? I know she's said that she's not confident in her singing voice, but I'm surprised she didn't have to do a single bit of dancing either. It seemed a bit unfair as the behind the scenes feature was talking about the rest of the cast taking on a whole lot of extra singing and dancing lessons on their weekends.
If her singing voice is something that Alyson is that insecure over then I can kind of understand it I guess, but I don't think there's ever been any explanation of why she had no dancing either when the rest of the cast all did, even though many of them were hardly trained dancers either. But people like Nicky Brendon and Amber Bensen still tried anway and threw themselves into it and learned the dances, while Alyson apparently got away with barely putting in any extra work for the musical at all. I mean Alyson could have at least been one of Buffy's back-up dancers in the Life's A Show song surely, instead of Amber having to do it when she had already sung two songs as it was
Frankly I would have been so resentful if I were a part of the cast who put so much extra work in for that episode, especially when Joss was gushing in the commentary that Alyson had the hardest job of all in some ways to have to react to the other characters singing
