So I had my first college production audition last night. I had signed up for the a late slot, which I wasn't really supposed to do. But, I got a phone call around 3:30 in the afternoon from the girl who was running the session, asking me if I would take one of the earlier time slots- either six, six-ten, or six-fifteen. As it turns out, I didn't have to be at dance until 6:30. I apologized for my mistake and said I'd go at six, which means I was the first one they saw at all.
I was so freaking nervous that forty-five minutes before my audition, I had to go outside and walk around because I couldn't conentrate on anything. Earlier yesterday, I had spent an hour and a half in the theatre trailer reading the script. I was so scared they were going to ask me if I had read the script, and saying no wasn't an option (but lying and saying yes would have been risky). So I read it straight through and, though it helped me knock one character off of my "want to play" list, one got added: Little Mary. Now, I had wanted to be Little Mary anyway, but I had decided that I would not do the scene at the audition because that was the one that had all of those "Oh, Mother dear"s in it, and I didn't want to do it badly. But the character is just so great. She only has about three or four scenes, but they're great ones. Also on my list was Sylvia, the manipulative gossip, and Mary, Little Mary's mother and the lead character. Obviously, I have NO chance of getting a lead role as a freshman, but it is a great part.

I was looking around the internet at random shows the other day and came across Nor-mal, the musical. Nor-mal is the story of a "perfect family" who's world comes to a halt when they discover that Polly, their teenage daughter, has anorexia. The show seems to be mostly through the eyes of Gayla, the mother, but also shows how it affects everyone in the family.

I had a string of VERY good luck and was able to go backstage on the set of Monty Python's Spamalot, and made a Broadway contact in the process.
