All the world's a stage.

Theatre is a way of life. We all have our preferences and we all have our dislikes. From Shakespeare to Contemporary, from auditions to closing night: we are here to help! :)

I hated school, I hated school. And I didn’t realize why. I thought I was…I was, I thought there was something wrong with me for hating school, for not being able to deal with school. At the time it was ingrained in me that school was: if you’re not successful in school you’re not going to be successful in life. And the hierarchy with the subjects at school, like the arts are given no credence. And if they are, it’s false credence. So, I look back on it and and I’m angry. I’m angry about it because, you know, there might be a brilliant ballerina somewhere in school who’s being forced to do maths, and she sees it difficult. But if she’s just allowed to express whatever gifts she has to offer then she would be happy and then she could make hundreds of thousands of other people joyous for a couple of hours per night.

How I feel about life. And it’s not even just school either. This thinking translates straight to tertiary study, where arts degrees are considered a joke, and then on to later life where you are largely discouraged from pursuing the arts as anything but a hobby. Having said that I loved school.

It’s like, everything you do in theatre is an audition - and yours isn’t going very well.

I need help! ?

I am asking any and all. What do you think makes the perfect villain? And I don’t mean some person who just had a lot of ****ed up things happen the them-I want someone who is so delicously evil that the only way to describe them is “The Perfect Villain.” Someone who is born evil. What makes a perfect villain? Please, someone help me with this.

Hello, again, Minions. Yes, I call thee minions!

So...As most of you can tell, our blog is dying; it can only be sustained with questions, and conversation. Don't be afraid to talk to us-even if it's just to talk. I don't know how many times I have said this, but we don't bite. [Actor tip # 2: never be afraid to talk to potential help-ask questions] Well, I hope you all decide to talk to us. We miss you, truly, we do! I Understand we haven't posted much, but that is because we have been dreadfully busy, but that doesn't mean we don't have time for our lovely followers. I love you minions; I demand you talk to us. ok? Anyways, talk to you later; ask questions!

Hello, I'm Back!

Hello Followers, 

Sorry there hasn't been much activity lately :/ Kaelee and I have been so ridiculously busy; Me with rehearsals, and her with-well, I don't know what she's been up because she doesn't talk to me anymore. haha, anyway, kitties, Want to know something exciting? I have been told that many of my original monologues have helped people get into shows. Yes sir! They even helped me. I wrote came up with, I didn't even write it down, a monologue an hour before an audition, and got it. Granted, I didn't get the role I want, but nonetheless, I got in. So, come to me, and tell me your stories; What has happened to you? Got anything exciting to tell us? let us know!  

[thetheatreadviceblog]

I love to audition

For many it is a nerve racking experience but for me, it is a learning experience. I grow as a performer every time I audition. 

(Speaking of auditions, Erik and I are auditioning for a musical on Thursday) 

Well, if you have auditions coming up soon, we would love to hear about them! 

Break a leg!

Theatre Etiquette

Me: When you go to the theatre, you must turn your phone off! Not on vibrate, not on silent. Off!

Student: What if there's an emergency?

Me: It can wait until the show is over.

Student: What if someone died?!

Me: They'll still be dead when the show's over.

Next time YOU are up for the biggest role of your career, I’ll sigh and say:

“Well, you just don’t have the experience to get this role. Sorry!”

FUCK THAT SHIT

SOMEONE HAS TO GIVE YOU THE CHANCE SOMETIME. I HATE HER MUSIC TO BUT FOR FUCK’S SAKE PEOPLE. IT’S NOT LIKE IT’S SOMEONE WHO CAN’T MAKE...

Hello,

It's been a while being on here, but I come with words of wisdom! hahah, I just finished watching Company By Stephen Sondheim, the 2007 revival. And I must say, It was fantastic! I loved it. It made me think about myself as an actor, though. I saw them on stage, and kept thinking They are such amazing actors, am I that great? I know I'm not the greatest, or the best, but I think with time, and patience, I can get there. I am determined; and waiting to see if NYCDA is going to accept me.

-Erik

P.s. Ask us some questions, we'll try to answer them to the best of our abilities.

Hey, so I was wondering if I could get some advice. I've heard that the musical my school will be doing is Rent and It's kind of my dream to play mark. I was wondering if you knew of some good audition songs that might help me out? Thanks in advance!

Okay, so I thought about it.BARE: A pop opera - once upon a time. I think that is a really nice song
