Invest In Yourself As A Performer
User Rating: / 3
Written by triplethreat   
I am often discouraged by the number of supposed "serious" performers who complain about buying sheet music, cast recordings, dance/acting/singing lessons, proper dance shoes.... the list goes on. Often these same people are found on various message boards on the internet, asking for monologues or sheet music to be e-mailed to them because they "don't have the money" to buy their own.

I know what it's like to have to pinch pennies, and I don't mean to appear insensitive to the financial situation of others, but if you are truly serious about becoming a performer, it's time to get real.

I had my callback for the Equity production of Over the Tavern on Monday.

I talked about this audition and my worries about the callbacks in my previous two blogs (links at the end of this entry). I was pretty anxious about the callbacks. I almost didn't get my sides because I never check my school e-mail (I used that address because it's much more professional than my regular one. Because of this instance, I am creating one to use just for acting/professional stuff). There were two sides; both of them involved the character I was going out for, Annie, crying. In the play, Annie cries a lot. In all but about two of her scenes, she's crying. For awhile now, tears have never been a problem for me to scare up, but I'm always afraid that the day I'll need them most, I won't be able to conjure up any.

The danger of this was very real on the day of the callback. Nothing I did made me tear up (and I'm one of those people that tears up at a cute commercial). I was really panicking when I had been trying for a few hours to cry, just to get some sense memory, and nothing was happening.

My last blog entry consisted of me describing two shows I was going up for. While one audition is still nine days away, the other happened two days ago. This was the Equity audition for the play Over the Tavern.

A little secret for those of you who didn't read my last blog- I'm not Equity. However, I am quite skilled at talking my way into auditions. :p While I would never crash an Equity audition, I really wanted to try out for this show, so, long story short, I called and got an appointment for the earliest time slow (1 p.m.)
