if at first you don't succeed....

Try, Try Again.

Well Folks, I decided to put this to the test. I auditioned for another musical on Monday night. I feel it went well, but I said the same thing the last time... and that turned out to be a disaster.

I was a little apprehensive to audition for this place (it's REALLY REALLY hard to get in, even as a part of the ensemble) but I hiked up my pants and went for it. (Is that a real expression? Who knows.)

Anyway, I went, sang my song and left. That was it. I won't find out about call backs until later this week. Callbacks for dancing and singing are this Saturday so I'm assuming I would get a call at least on Friday to let me know if they want to see more from me. If I don't get a call... well that's that.

We'll see. Either way, it was good practice to sing in front of people again. It's been a while. Besides, auditions are scary and I'm just getting the hang of it again. Maybe by the 17th audition I'll be ready to actually be cast in a show.

I really want a part in the show, even if it's in the ensemble. I'll take it. I just want to be on stage again, doing the things I love to do but haven't in years because I was too scared.

Utah is weird. Everyone here is amazingly talented. I swear they come out of the womb with jazz hands and tap shoes on already.

I used to be a big ole fish where I'm from and moving here kinda sucked at first, realizing that I was no one special. I am not in any way super talented like most people here, but I do have a little somethin somethin stage presence. Let's hope they take a chance on me.

If not this time.... well.. you know. They haven't seen the last of me!
