And Speaking of Auditions....

Will I cut my hair?  Will I dye it?  Am I available between 3:00 and 6:00 p.m. on Tuesdays, Wednesdays,  and Thursdays?  Can I sing and dance?  If I'm not cast, will I work in the technical side of the show?

Today was our audition workshop.  For two grueling hours we answered questions, read, acted, were given direction, read and acted again, and ultimately each had our turn in the "hot seat."  How fun was having our audition critiqued in front of the whole academy?  Not much!

On the bright side, three of us got cast in our faux show: Alex Messick as Gandalf, Allie Spaccarelli as Bilbo Baggins, and Alyson Tober as Gollum.  Perhaps tomorrow, Yoda will audition Mr. E, Mrs. Palmer, and Miss Erskine and put them on the hot seat.  I hope they remember to bring their asbestos underwear.
