DRAMEDY - JUNE 2015


I accidentally scheduled a dental clean-up for the same day as this. I showed up to the audition feeling fine, but worried that my teeth looked pink.
There was one serious-looking actor ahead of me. When his turn came, he let me go ahead of him because he wasn’t ready. Dude wasn’t doing his monologue out loud but internally. Whatever.
I did my monologue from “Candid”. I felt fine doing it. The one guy behind the table laughed a few times. The two women smiled pleasantly. When I woke up the next day, I found the standard “Thanks, but no thanks” email on my phone. For some reason, this hurt a little more than other rejections. I can’t explain it.

Post script – a week later, the same show put another audition notice online for a role in the show that was either suddenly available again/never cast in the first place. Ouch.
