another round

Yet again we have come to that wonderful time of year....mainstage auditions...ahhh how I love them...2 one minute monologues...two minutes..you and the faculty....hours of work and rehearsal for two brief minutes.

I can't audition for the musical and one show is already cast, so I am left with "The Lion in Winter, and Crimes of the Heart." Both have very few femal parts and seeing as how I will be a sophomore, it's possible but very unlikely that I will get a part. So I'm just gonna try and have fun with my audition and not be nervous. I thought I had been doing horrible this year, but looking back on it not so much.

I was called back and cast in Cross Colors
Called back for the Doubt directing scene
cast w/out a callback for a Blues for an Alabama Sky scene directed by one of the top actors in our department.

He said "I can't believe I've never seen you in anything before." In my head I was like, "You! You just said that, and your so good that everyone raves about you..you were an ACTF nominee...holy shit!"..but all I said was, "I'm not very good with auditions yet." He got all excited and said, "I know I'm not the best for help or anything but if you ever need anything just gimme a call." Once again in my head I was going, "are you kidding me, ...your like the best male actor at this University and your offering me help?" I was freakig out. More like floating. He told me the reason he picked me without a callback was because when I walked in to auditon before I said anything he chose me because of my confidence. I was one of only two girls who walked in like they owned the place.....sweet

All in all....this year is winding down pretty damn well...17 more days! Yeah!!!
