Twelfth Night
The cast list just went up and already people expect it to be bad.
I got in. Not very excited about my part. I am one of three girls who are going to be 'Sailor/Gentlewoman'. No talking. No name. No idea how this director treats nameless background characters so I have no idea how fun it will be.
Several boys who are not good at Shakespeare (or known in the the theater community here for being responsible or professional) were given good roles. Two boys who were good at Shakespeare were given small roles. A few girls (at least two of us are good at Shakespeare) were given the aforementioned small, barely constitutes having roles.
The faculty is discussing things tomorrow. Members have already cursed over the casting decisions and one said "To be honest, I think she (the director) sounds like a fucking idiot."
So yeah. I got into a show. Go me.
