Callbacks

So, to follow up with my last blog, I was called back for the Cabaret audition I went to. I don't think I was cast, because I haven't heard anything yet. (A friend I made there did get a call with an offer, so I'm not just being impatient.) I suppose it's still possible, she just heard yesterday, but I've made peace with the fact it probably wont happen this time. I do want to share the experience though, because I thought it was interesting.

They had some people there earlier to read for principal roles. I was called for the dance audition. This came as a bit of a surprise to me, as I am not exactly gifted in that department. But the routine was fairly easy, so I gave it my best shot. After that, I was asked to go learn a piece of music with some of the other men. This came rather easy for me since I've done the show twice before. I keep that to myself though, hoping they would just think I was a fast learner. There were probably at least twenty of us. After we all sang, they asked four men, including me, to stay and sing it again. After that, they asked me to sing another piece from the show. I was one of two men they asked to do that. After that, we were finished.

I didn't expect to book my first show I auditioned for, but I did start to get my hopes up a bit after that night. Oh well. I feel like I'm off to a good start here. So we forget about this one now and it's on to the next!
