Has this happened to you??

People keep telling me I’m going to play a certain role in an up coming production I’m auditioning for. It just locks me into my type cast and it bugs me. Plus makes me feel nervous I’ll let people down. Anyone relate?

HELP ASAP

Does anyone have a copy of Thistle Blossoms by Roseanna Beth Whitlow? I lost my copy and I need to fix a monologue. Thanks!

Advice Needed

I recently auditioned for Little Shop of Horrors with the full intent of Audrey. A dream role at this point. My singing was very off from nerves but my acting was so solid that the director went out of his way to compliment me. So who would you give the role of Audrey to? A strong actor but a weaker singer or a strong singer but a weaker actor?

So apparently at one point during the American Revolution Alexander Hamilton, Lee and a bunch of troops were all across the Hudson River from the rest of the army, and Hamilton and a few other men were destroying bags of flour so the British wouldn’t get to them (since the British were supposed to arrive soon) and anyway the troops saw the British coming and began to retreat by marching off, but Hamilton and the other few men were left by the shore of the river with a heck of a lot of redcoats approaching. Luckily they had a boat and fled back across the river (under British gunfire), but one man died, another was wounded, and they all bailed and began to swim but made it out ok. However, Lee assumed Hamilton was dead and reported thus to Washington and his aides, and they were apparently all mourning him and drinking to his memory when he appeared in the doorway, dripping wet.

A year and a half ago when I started speech I said I would break at nats. Everyone laughed because there’s no way junior just starting has enough time to go to nats. Well this marked my second nationals and I broke twice yesterday. I really couldn’t be happier.
