And ever onwards...
It was callback-o-rama this weekend. Or rather Sunday, mostly. After an early rehearsal with Neutrino I raced out to Magnuson Community Center where I called back for Guildenstern in Greenstage's production of Hamlet. And the director asked me to stick around and read as Laertes which was a pleasent surprise. I read each scene only once but got the feeling this wasn't really a detriment to my chances. The director seemed very shrewd and keen to what she was looking for in her play and I really got the feeling just from seeing me read a scene or two she knew exactly where I may (or may not) fit in her concept. Which was refreshing.
I then raced to the East side for a callback for a dinner theater. Well, not just a dinner theater, a murder mystery dinner theater. Actually to be percise, a musical murder mystery dinner theater. I know. It harkens me back to my Musical Mafia Play days. This was without a doubt the strangest callback I have ever been attended. Details to be blogged at a later date.
After my foray into dinner theater (well, musical murder mystery dinner theater) I raced back to Magnuson to read for Fabian in Twelfth Night. The callback was fast and furious (but not like the movie (can you believe there's 3 of them?!).
Tonight was my Wooden O, which I think went all right. I was asked what I thought my age range was, which is a question I've only ever been asked on forms or discussed when talking about type. It was just strange to talk about it in an actual casting situation. I said 18-29. Maybe more with a beard. You can let me know if you feel otherwise.
Also this week, I have my orientation with the company which might be my representation in the very near future. They saw me at TPS at invited me to an orientation/audition. Details to follow.
