Avenue Q
So...
This show is growing more and more negative as time passes. We had 1 rehearsal where everyone ran around on stage pretending to be the director.
Meanwhile, the replacement actors (myself included) were tying to figure out a rehearsal schedule because we didn't really have one. Several days thrown around, nothing solid. None of us know anything about anything going on.
Then last night we newbies got yelled at for not knowing the blocking (that we weren't even shown) and not knowing our lines (which we received 3 days prior).
Then they sent out the cast list for Hair. I didn't get one of course. But I am becoming fast friends with the guy who's the star of Ave Q. And he sent me a text message asking me if I'm "ok".
I'm cringing. What does that mean? Did I not get on the cast for Hair?
If that's the case, I'm OUT. I didn't audition for Ave Q, I auditioned for Hair. If I don't get Hair, I'm wasting my time. Even if I get ensemble, I better get SOMETHING, or they're going to have to find a new Christmas Eve.
I HATE FLORIDA THEATER.
I may quit acting. Or at least theater acting. Film has always been kind to me. Theatre's for backstabbing egotists who'll never even get close to Broadway. At least, that's the way it is in FL.
