www.sdnn.com/sandiego/2009-05-11/things-to-do/adam-lambert-returns-to-musical-theater-roots "...the Metropolitan credo is to develop talent, not create "stars," so during Lambert's teen years, he mentored younger actors (which she said involved everything from "teaching them a dance step to wiping a runny nose"). And he was cast as often in the ensemble as in the lead -- even though he had the kind of talent she said "you only see once in a lifetime." "It grounds them. It's like being part of a team or a family. It teaches you humility," she said. "Adam truly is as genuine as he looks on television. His family gave him a great foundation, and I like to think we helped give him a lot of good values. Did you see on every 'Idol' episode how he thanked the orchestra or the band? Those are the things we still teach our kids today. You get what you give. What you put out there in the universe comes back to you. And you see that sense of kindness and generosity in Adam's persona."

Ellipsis in “Beauty and the Beast”
Over an eight-year stint at the children's theater, Lambert started out in the chorus of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown," then graduated to the lead in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." He starred as Huckleberry Finn in "Big River" and played both male leads in "The Secret Garden," which the theater produced after the Urbans saw the show on Broadway and Alex immediately thought of casting Lambert.
Though "Garden" was vocally challenging, Kathie said her husband was confident Lambert could handle it. And once he hit the stage, she recalled, the reaction was, "Oh my God, we had tears in our eyes."

'You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown'
Linus' Song - 'My Blanket And Me'
Children's Theatre Network (MET2)
Lyceum Theatre, San Diego, CAAdam is cast in his first role as 'Linus' in the San Diego Children's Theatre Network (now MET2) production of 'You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown' at the Lyceum Theatre. 
"He has invested his entire life in music and performing, and that means working at it. His talent didn't just happen overnight as some people think," said Kathie Bretches-Urban, who has known Lambert since he showed up -- as a boisterous, likable 10-year-old -- to audition for Metropolitan Educational Theatre, a San Diego-based youth theater company founded by her late husband, Alex Urban.
BORN IN A TRUNK
'He'd just come out onstage, and it popped,' said Bretches-Urban,
who now lives in Long Beach. 'You'd see that sparkle in his eye.
That gift is a passion. It's something in (his) soul that just exudes
from every pore. You know that this child has discovered his chosen
path, even if he doesn't know it yet.'
Lambert was a self-professed 'hyperactive kid' whose now-divorced
parents, Eber and Leila Lambert, enrolled him in theater to channel
his energy. His first role in 1991 was as Linus in 'You're a Good Man,
Charlie Brown' at San Diego's Lyceum Theatre.
Like his father, Lambert's coloring was fair -- a thick head of
strawberry blond hair, fair skin and freckles. He took to acting,
singing and dancing quickly and formed a tight circle of friends in
the theater community.
'Music and performing were the only things I ever knew Adam doing,
Bretches-Urban said. 'He was not a kid that did sports. That was just
not his thing. I do know that he worked, much like an athlete would
do, on his singing with voice lessons for his entire life.'

Scenes from a Life: Adam Lambert
By Ben Kaplan
arts.nationalpost.com/2012/07/10/scenes-from-a-life-adam-lambert/
You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, written 1967; performed by Lambert, 1991
"When I started dressing up in a hat and suit jacket and listening to Thriller, my parents got me into theatre. We did You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown and I played Linus. It was stressful. There were a handful of kids all in the same role and you had to compete because at the end of rehearsal, they ranked you: If you had the best performance, you got Friday night. Saturday night went to the second best. In a way, it was f–ked up, but it planted a seed. I wanted it badly - that fight stuck with me ever since."

What was your reaction the first time you realized Adam had such an incredible voice?
I remember he was in a children’s production of Fiddler on the Roof when he was about 10 years old. I’d never watched the rehearsals. So during the show when he got on top of a table and let out this note, I just looked at his dad and said, “Where’d that come from?” Leila Lambert (Woman's Day)

When did you realize you had musical talent?
At 10 years old, I was put into a musical theater company, a children’s theater company. I was really creative early on and I think my parents were trying to figure out what I wanted to do. I had a lot of energy. I was hyper and they put me in indoor soccer and T-Ball and I didn’t really love it. I was in the Cub Scouts at one point. They tried everything -- swimming lessons and other activities -- but I was very creative at home and wanted to play dress-up and make believe and recite things, so they figured that theater was a natural fit.
I got into all the musicals and the first time I realized I was doing a production of “Fiddler On the Roof” and there’s this scene where this Russian guy has a featured solo in the “L’Chaim” number. It’s like a bar scene. He’s the big guy that holds the note forever. It’s that big showoff moment, and I was playing that part.
