Rules for a good audition:

#1 - Don't show up 35 minutes late.
#2 - Don't forget which movie you're auditioning for.
#3 - Don't be 15 years older than you said you were on email, and then leer at the director with a less-than-normal grin.
#4 - Don't just not show up.
#5 - Don't not show up, then email later explaining that you actually drove to the location, but that the place "looked too sketchy" so you turned around and went straight home.
#6 - Don't scream every line while constantly shuffling your feet throughout the entire read.

I'm sure I'll have more to add tomorrow after the next group passes through...

7# - Don't tell them you voted for Kerry because the GWB/Rummy/Rove funded megapoliticorporation that will eventually own your ass WILL find out and strip you blind of your possessions leaving you homeless in the streets picking thru Waste Management 96 yarders looking for you next meal.

HA! I just sat through 2 days of auditions for the community theatre play I'm directing.

Rule #7 - Don't audition, get cast, and THEN discover that you've got a conflict with the production dates!
Rule #8 - If you can't speak with inflection in your normal voice, don't attempt to act.

UGH!!!

Ah yes, the "I want to act but I always have more important things to do than your project" people. Bastards!

Luckily for me I've been able to cast 2 of the 3 leads and the one key supporting role. Auditions for the other lead are this weekend, barring more snow (girl postponed today's audition b/c of weather).

By the way, what play are you directing?

Lemme tell ya: I'm tempted! God, it's really f*cking great when hot girls like you because you're "the director". And this gal is hot!

And hey, I'm not exactly a pretty boy, so I have to get mine somehow!

(*No long term relationship expectations this time, though. )

I'm directing "The Butler Did It" by Tim Kelly. A cute little murder mystery spoof that is very closely based on "Ten Little Indians".

Ok, you've got a point. You do have that going for you! But, do you wear shoes?

Yes I do. How else will I get the foot support I need when doing squats and deads? I have to confess that I own a pair of bibbed overalls, but I don't wear them too often, so they don't have that Tom Sawyer worn look to them.
