Audition 7

Yesterday I woke up around 5 am to make the line outside the Equity building by 7:55 am for an EPA for Ground-Up Productions. They were looking for actors for a reading series. I was #5 on the non-union list. As I sat there, Meagan Barno walks in. We met at the Ward Studio and had performed together in I Wish You A Boat 3 years ago. Which was great. We got to wait on line together! Then, my friend Stephanye, an Equity member, said the list was looking good for us to get seen, at that point, they only had people signed up until 10:10am.

While in line, I get this call from a manager who hasn't called me in over a year, for a commercial for Wal-Mart in Spanish at Judy Henderson Casting for tomorrow!!!

Lunch hits, we haven't been seen.

Now it's 3:45pm. None of us had been seen and no updates. Then Katia Hoerning and Matt Cody arrive at the building at about the same time. It's a bit of a reunion. Matt has EMC points, goes into the lounge and speaks the monitor who tells him she's not going to get to any of us. So we leave, a bit saddened and disappointed.

Luckily, all is not lost. Matt told us about an open call for The Milk Can Theater Company at Ripley-Grier. We get there early and are seen in the first 1/2 hour. Audition 7 for our 30 and Audition 6 of my 15...I want to break the halfway mark this week!!! Thanks to Meagan for spending an entire day with me and Matt for the heads up on the audition... and also to the lovely girls who were waiting on line with us.
