I'm getting antsy and impatient. I'm supposed to have a possible audition on Tuesday or Wednesday and I haven't heard anything. It's something I submitted on almost 2 weeks ago, a show that I've done before...twice. Got an e-mail back from the director saying since I've done the show, and played the role they are trying to cast, I might not need to have a formal audition. If they could talk to whoever directed me in the show Maybe I could just meet with them sometime before the audition, or just drop by the audition to chat. I e-mailed them back with the info and yes, I'm interested in doing this, and haven't heard from them since. Sigh. I'm trying not to think about it. It won't be the end of the world if it doesn't happen, and it also means I won't have to do some serious schedule rearranging. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention - this is to do the show out of town at a theater festival...I think this is the first time it's being done outside of LA, which would be exciting. I'm actually more concerned about the LA rehearsals than going out of town - the out of town thing would just be one weekend, I think.
Like I said, it won't be the end of the world if it doesn't happen, and financially and schedule-wise it's not the best thing for me to be doing right now, but if I'm gonna be completely honest with myself I really, really want to do this and would find a way. I think I would drop everything to do this. I have a weird obsession with this show that's lasted over three years now since the first time I saw it. I can't explain it. It was like I was just sucked in and it became a big part of my life - like once you do this show it never really ends - I'll always be connected.
What if I slipped through the cracks? Or they found someone to play the role already? Or even worse, this director talked to the other directror and they said, don't even bother! Okay, that's highly doubtful because that director wouldn't have cast me a second time if they thought I was bad, lol. It's only Sunday, and it's possible the audition dates got changed or something, so I'm not giving up yet. I just would like to know for sure whether this audition/meeting is happening or not, and if I have to go through an actual audition I need to prepare.
I also want to get going on these voice over classes. I've gotten two e-mails about cancellations last week and this week, but unfortunately neither time slot worked for me so I could'nt bump up my appointment. Ugh. I'm hoping there's more cancellations this week or next. Still, my first lesson is less than a month away, so it's not that bad.
Last week I went to a thing about voice over demos at one of the organizations I belong to. The person who spoke hasn't been doing VO very long and a lot of it was stuff I'd heard before, although they did say a few things I didn't know about. But the encouraging thing is they already had booked work! And they studied with the person I'm going to be studying with, so that's good to know.
Oh, things worked out fine with my haircut. I explained that I thought it was too short last time and didn't like how it looked on camera. My hairdresser cut it the same length, but left the layers longer so it doesn't look or feel as short. I'm happy with the outcome. It's a teensy bit too short, but in two weeks it'll be just the right length.
