Eric is directing the next show at the theatre. He’s asked me to [1] assistant direct, [2] make costumes, [3] arrange props. Because I’m assistant directing, he wanted me to watch auditions and give my advice. He needed to cast 3 men and 4 women. Because auditions had spotty attendance, he asked if I could stand in and read some of the parts in the audition pieces. This is nothing I haven’t done before and while I don’t really enjoy it, it would be hard for him to read a part from offstage and still -really- watch auditions. By the end of the day on Sunday [day 2 of auditions], I noticed he was asking me to read more than what was really necessary. In fact, some of the girls who came to audition for real were just sitting… I figured he was just doing it to annoy me ;)
Strangely… no. He’s offered me the lead.
I’m not sure how I feel about that.
But… as the lead female, I will get to kiss the hot guy from Starbucks ;) A lot. And I don't have to run around in my bra like the other actress would ;)
