The theatre kids!

[Cinnamon]

So the older people at my drama studio are doing a play and they needed extra bodies (literally) so they asked me to help out! It's Clue: on stage! And I get to die twice (booyah!) and do a whole bunch of behind the scenes stuff!  

[Edema Rue she/her]

Cinny that would be like my dream come true, can I move to Australia and join you?

[Cinnamon]

Of course you may! That’s be awesome!!!!!!!

[Edema Rue she/her]

Sounds good I’ll be right there

…

I wish.

oh my god i love clue on stage!! have you seen the movie?? it's hilarious 

activity in this thread is slowing down which is really sad 
anyway-

symphonianbookworm and i are having theatre auditions next tuesday which is terrifying......
the fall play is an inspector calls, the winter musical is the prom, and the spring play is much ado about nothing

it should be really fun!!!
i'm super excited 

but i'm also really nervous for auditions

[Edema Rue she/her]

Ah that's terrifying!! I had Rudolph auditions last week, they went fine, I'm just one of the random misfit toys though which is kind of sad. But I also get to be in The Crucible later this year, which is exciting, and All Shook Up in the spring, and possibly Peter and the Starcatchers.

Both of you break so many legs on your auditions!!

[Lotus Blossom she/her]

That sounds so fun!! I'm sorry that you're not too happy about your casting, but I'm sure you'll have a great time in The Crucible and the other productions you put on!

Thank you! 

[Cinnamon]

Chookas with you auditions Symph and Blossom!

I’m off to a rehearsal now and just thought I’d pop it in this thread to keep this going

[Lotus Blossom she/her]

Thanks!!

I auditioned for my schools fall musical this year, unfortunately I did not get a part.

Today or tomorrow, though, I want to audition for the improv group. I don't expect a part there either, since I'm not great at improv, but it's good to show my involvement I guess.

[Edema Rue she/her]

That's awesome! I think one of the bravest things a person can do is audition even when they don't expect to get anything. My school does something interesting with drama, which is that you can't be in any of the performances unless you're in the class, but as long as you're in the class you get a part. So even though I'm in ensemble, I for sure get to be in 3 performances this year, which I know a lot of people don't like but I think it's great, because I don't have a ton of time and so this way I don't have to commit 3 months of my life to a musical but I can still do it.

I still don't like having Christmas music stuck in my head all day every day already, though.

Yeah, it didn't go all that great. Though I have been participating in an open improv club and doing some in my acting class, so I've gotten better.

I’m a theater kid! We recently had auditions for an adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, and I got Doormouse!

[Edema Rue she/her]

Oooh that’s so fun!!

I have 3 auditions this Friday, for the Crucible, All Shook Up, and Peter and the Starcatchers. I’m really hoping for a lead in the first, a funny part in the second, and just to get into the 3rd. (There are only 4 female roles in Peter and I’m sure there all going to the seniors, but that’s okay)

Rapunzel or Red, but I think I have a better shot at Rapunzel, as I’m a bit too tall for Red

[Lotus Blossom she/her]

Hehehe...sorry to double post but...ugh.

I had my audition for All Shook Up today, and it literally couldn't have gone worse if I had dropped dead halfway through.

I’m sorry to hear that  having a bad audition Storming sucks. Something that cheers me up a little after something like that (ugh I’ve had my fair share of sucky auditions) is this quote from Mistborn

Quote

There were a group of people before the Ascension known as the Astalsi. They claimed that each person was born with a certain finite amount of ill luck. And so, when an unfortunate event happened, they thought themselves blessed—thereafter, their lives could only get better.

I know it’s a little nonsensical but it’s nice to think about. Correct me if I’m wrong but don’t you have another audition on Friday that you mentioned? Maybe this one had to go badly so you could learn and adapt, and hey, maybe it wasn’t as bad as you thought?

I'm sorry... Bad auditions really make you feel absolutely terrible, but know that there will be many more chances and that this isn't the end of the world. Just keep distracting yourself until it doesn't even mean anything to you anymore. I'm sorry, but I promise, things will get better <3

Yeah, I do, and that one’s not singing so I’m hoping it goes better. Thanks, Cin.

Terribly sorry for the double post, but…

Anyone else know the feeling when you break down sobbing in front of your voice teacher and her friend because they’re talking about how everyone has to see cast lists come out and realize their name isn’t on them?

And 4 cast lists came out earlier that day?
