Bah...
High school kids aren't as much fun to audition as middle school kids.
Except for the kid who read the line "womb to tomb" as "wom to tom", not a whole lot to report.
The director wants them all to have prepared monologues. Apparently they all had to do a Shakespeare monologue for English class, so they're all performing those. I am WAY too blonde to evaluate a Shakespeare monologue.
My other favourite move in an audition is when the kid plays a note on the piano to find their note for the song, and then starts on a totally unrelated note. Uh-huh.
In other news, I auditioned for a show here in town for the big amateur company. I sang alright, but I totally BLEW the dance audition. One of my friends called it the "two year old at tap class" syndrome.
Crap crap crap. I CAN dance. Honest. And no, I was NOT smoking crack before I auditioned.
Argh. Oh well, I'll just sit back and wait for my "unfortunately, we don't have a part to offer you" phone call. I love how they say it all diplomatic-like. In their minds, they're thinking "because this show doesn't call for anyone with no apparent limb control."
Bah.
