Actor Extroidanaire

YOOOOOOOO THIS IS CRAZY!!!!!!!! Like crazy crazy crazy. I was just going to change my post on facebook but i realized that this is BLOGSPOT Material!!!!

So earlier today, I had an audition for the 2009-2010 Season for The Ensemble Theater (downtown Houston, TX). I had a solid audition that made some of the 5 or 6 directors laugh. I was all good until....THEY MADE ME S I N G lmao. I was so nervous and not prepared for a singing audition, but they let me go outside for 5 minutes, come back and sing ANYTHING. So I came back and sung "One Song Glory" from Rent...and one of the directors stopped me!!!!!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh talk about scarin tha ba-jesus out of me! I'm already not a confident singer! He told me to sing something else. Something on the radio. Something R&B. So off the top of my head, without hesitation, I just bust out into this Jagged Edge song "Whats It Like." A couple of them told me straight up that it was a better song choice. And when I went back into the lobby, a girl was clapping for me, and another girl asked me 'what song was that because it sounded familiar'

So anyway, this whole time I've been telling my friends how scared I was about the results. Weird thing is...6 hours later...my fone rings saying i got a call for "Five Guys Named Moe." I was so ampd! Its actually a play that requires singing and dancing abilities. I checked out the music just now, and it seems like a very fun show.

I decided to call them back to ask if i needed to bring anything to the callback and they said nope, but they also told me that i got called back for "Stick Fly" also. Talk about a sigh of relief!!!! I felt like I nailed that audition. Ive been calling and texting people left and right. But this is where the magic comes in: i JUST recieved a call saying that I got called back for the role of Jr. in "Christmas with Great Aunt" (wipes sweat off my forehead). THATS 3 SHOWS!!!!! Pray for me yall. This is going to be bananas...And im EXTREMELY excited!!!
