so i've had a bad couple nights what with the turn of events surrounding auditions and finding out last night i didn't get cast. again.
however i, being the devious and skillful person that i am, noticed that one of the characters in twelfth night didn't have an understudy. which was strange because all the other big characters had them. so i asked mary, the director, if i could audition for the understudy part. she was very impressed by my asking and said i didn't have to audition since she'd seen me in call backs and knew i could do it. so i went and got myself cast for winter quarter. because ultimately, still this early in the game, stage time isn't what's important to me. working on a show and learning how to become a better actor is what's important to me. i imagine that will change. i'll be really pissed if i'm not cast next year. because, as mary told me today, i deserve to have a roll.
my roommate is already complaining about having to understudy in the fantasticks. thank god for twelfth night otherwise i probably would have killed her.
at least i learn things from all of life's minor setbacks. learning to market myself. having the courage to ask for the things i need. handling rejection. blah blah blah.
i'm tired of being a trooper.
