Auditions

I auditioned for the Little Mermaid. It's at the local children's theatre here. I had mixed feelings about it. I wanted to be in another show but I wasn't sure if I wanted to work with a bunch of kids. Of course I'd LOVE to be in a kid's show because then Bea and Millie can come to the show and be loud and unreasonable and see me and that would be okay, because it's a kid's show. There were a lot of kids there at the audition. And quite a few older women (the majority of them have been in a show from this theatre in the past - I'm the only newbie.) I don't know the cast list - meaning I don't know which characters would be better as adults etc. or even how many is in the cast. I'd love to be the sea witch, but they only had me read for one of the little mermaid's sisters. I guess that's a plus? They see me as younger? Or an negative - they see me as an older younger and therefore there is no place for me? I wouldn't even know how they'd begin to cast a show like that. Go with kids with little experience or go with someone with experience. This is a kids show so wouldn't they want just kids if they could have just kids? I don't know. Well, callbacks are supposed to be tonight and I've yet to hear from anyone. There is an old saying: 'No news is good news.' Well in theatre it's the opposite. No news is bad news. Oh well. Something will come up that I can be in some day....
