2014 – Can you believe it?
Soon auditions will begin again for theatres all over. My attempt to go to UPTA was thwarted because I didn’t get my application submitted in time. My place on the waiting list does not warrant any hope for a spot. Maybe next year.
Sounds a little like this blog – a little late.
General auditions are a fractured fun time. Performers can be confident, anxious, outstanding in their auditions, and never get a callback from the theaters they would love to hear from.
Usually not told what a reason might be, an actor may be tempted to invent one. Of course, some of the reasons are obvious – there wasn’t a suitable part e.g., actor was too tall, too short, too old, too young, too thin, too hefty, etc. etc. etc.
So, the performer must just keep plugging away. Caveat – if you can’t take rejection – either outright or concocted internally – find a different job.
Good luck to all you who are about to audition and to all the auditors and to me as I join the masses.
