OT: AUDITIONS ARE OVER-NOW I WAIT!!

Last night were step 1 of the auditions for the locally produced play "Dracula". I would have NEVER EVER auditoned for a part, however I have been backstage as costume mistress, (changing costumes for charachters) and props. So, I have auditioned for 2 parts: one is a female vampire and the other one is Lucy's Mother- Martha. I can only hope that I get part. Call backs are tomorrow at 8am posted on the door, and actual cast roles will be posted on the theatre doors this Friday at 8am. I did this to see how I handle my stage fright-- THERE WAS NONE! I also did this to commemorate my 1 year surgiversary which is tomorrow.....and I looked in the mirror before I went and told myself there is NOTHING to be scared of!!! I'll let you know! And if I'm in it-- I expect to see you at 1 of the performances!! (ok, well, if you can!) Stacey

How fun! I wish I had the nerve. We have a local play group in my SMALL town, maybe someday.....LOL. Good luck and keep us posted----Toni

Toni, I will keep everyone posted. I feel that either way, I'm a winner because I would NOT have done this one year ago. Plus not having stage fright anymore? That alone was worth being there. The final decision will be posted Friday the 21st! Thanks for the support!!! Stacey

oh stacey i am praying you get the part. I wish i had time for something like that. Isn't it great the confidence we get after losing weight? I know you will enjoy this, let me know how it turns out. Hugs Linda

How cool Stacey I am so proud of you for conquering your fears. I feel the same way sometimes to about crouds of people and so forth when I was heavy. I would never of gone on stage or out in public. You have given me inspiration to go out and use my talent in some form. I can't wait to hear if you got the part and I would love to come and see you in the play. Tricia

Tricia how is your recovery coming along? I've been thinking a lot about you lately and was just wondering how you are and how well you think the surgery helped your complications. Hugs Linda

Stacey, As a former professional theatre wardrobe mistress, I can say I have never had the nerve to come from behind the curtain!! So I commend you If you get the part I tell you now I will be there with bells on to cheer you on at opening night. Roses in hand I will be there to give you a standing ovation in fact you get one now for just going to the audition. BRAVO!!! Happy Anniversary too!! Jill

Hi Stacey, You did it and now for the wait. I am SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!! Congrats on your 1 year too. You go girl. Yes keep us posted on which part you get. Hugs Debbie M
