So yesterday I auditioned for my schools production of ‘Into the Woods’, and I am pretty stoked. The audition went really well, not perfect, but I feel happy about it. Especially after my last audition… It really made me realize that not everyone can have a “great” audition every single time, because we’re only human. 

The callback list got posted at lunch today, and I made the first cut! (YAY) So I will have callbacks on Saturday from 1-3pm, so be thinking happy thoughts for me!

Anyone have any funny/bad audition stories?

  2. halfnotestoheaven answered: I got laryngitis for 2 weeks before and during auditions for ITW. I’m a soprano and had NO voice. I was called back and now I’m Jack!
  3. opusqe answered: Stupid director. She was always drunk and you, as an 8th grader, deserved a bigger role.
  4. thatgeekygirl answered: Well, I have one, although I’m only a techie. I was working props for a show and accidently walked into the audition room during someone’s.
  5. thatdramakiderik answered: Yes, I do! During my schools production of “ITW” we all became our characters. I am not lying, I was the narrator, and I kneweveryones gossip
