Hey everyone! So you guys don't know this, but a few weeks ago I tried out for a county wide production of Miss Saigon. This production is very controversial, but it is also extremely pretty and the group of people in charge of it are very professional. There were almost 200 people who tried out and they cut about 50 people before callbacks. Well I got a letter for callbacks so I spent today at auditions from 11am-4pm. And let me say,those of you who think theatre is easy are wrong! It is a lot of hard work and very challenging. We had to spend every second available, which wasn't a lot. We rehearsed the dance they taught us and sung the song that they gave us music for. By 4:30 everyone had finally finished and even though it was a lot of fun and hopefully worth it in the end, we were all ready to go home. I have a disadvantage because I'm a freshmen; they usually don't get cast, but I tried my best and I should know in a few weeks whether or not I made it.
Tip: If you are going to go for theatre or any type of performing go for it, but don't think it's going to be easy or something to take lightly. Performing is a lot of fun, but it also takes a lot of hard work and many many hours.
