The Problem with Auditioning

Getting cast. Ok. Well. It's not really a problem "It's not a problem it's a challenge - it's what I wanted..." (L5Y). I know I haven't been posting. When you get cast, and you work, and you have friends and you have a spouse - well - I know EXCUSES! But I'm back! I have noticed from the traffic reports that the good ol basics are getting used so YAY! We are moving into Musical Theatre Auditions. Having recently been cast in some musicals - I'll pass on what I knew before going in - and what I know now. "And I know things now many wonderful things" (Into The Woods). I'm excited to jump into this world with you. It's one of my faves! Joining us at some point will be some more guest bloggers - Zach Ortz, Tammis Doyle and many more!

What's been in the way?  I just finished playing Matron Mama Morton in Chicago. This week I was cast as the Drowsy Chaperon in - you guessed it - The Drowsy Chaperon.  Learning to balance my writing life with my acting life - well - I'm here to tell you that "I'm not going" (Dream Girls). So my commitment to you - at least 3 posts a week.I hope you will continue to check back.

Happy Holidays! Talk to you next week!

  1. Don't worry about what they want or need. Just be true to who you are and if it fits, it fits!

  2. Actually- I agree that you need to be true to who you are but - you must take into account what they are looking for! I think you can serve both!
