Hold you hats and hallelujah!JASON'S GOIN' ON A TOU-AH!It's me! It's ME! IT'S MEEEEEE!!!Sorry I've been E&T this week, but, as DR Jose so cryptically implied, I have had good reason. Friday I went in for my FIFTH audition for TheatreWorks USA, and let me tell you, the audition was disastrous. I sang a song that I've never done in an audition (without having the forethought to ask DR Jose if he would play through it with me at least once before I went in with it). The pianist gave me my starting pitch, as requested, and I began to sing in a totally different key. Which, of course, threw me off, causing me to forget which verse I was singing, so I screwed up the lyrics and ultimately broke one of the cardinal rules of auditioning - I got flustered and stopped the song and re-started. Somehow, out of that mess, I got a callback, which happened yesterday, and I just got the call this afternoon that they want me to do the tour!I'll be playing Mr. Fezziwig/Marley's Ghost/The Ghost of Christmas Present in the TheatreWorks USA tour of A CHRISTMAS CAROL (the Gallagher/Waldrop version) starting in November. I just looked over the audition notice and found that rehearsals won't start until November 5, so I've got a couple of months to get things together. As mentioned, by taking this tour, I will become a member of Actor's Equity Association, which has been a major goal for me since I began performing, so it's great to be fulfilling that dream...AND I'M FINALLY DOING WHAT I CAME HERE TO DO!!!I'm really excited about all of this, and I have to say that it probably wouldn't have happened without all of you guys - especially DR Jose, who has been incredibly supportive and helpful in getting me back to auditions. Knowing that there are people who want you to succeed makes it a lot easier to go into a room and risk making a fool of yourself to realize your dreams. And now...the Broad Way!!!
In other news...Well... I think it's all right to post this news...Let's just say there's a pretty good reason that a certain DR has been errant and truant the past few days... And as a result of the past few days, in another few weeks, he will have an even better reason for being errant and truant. And, hopefully, after that, there will be many more "good reasons". -Cryptic enough for ya'?
Official congratulations!!!Now comes the hard part, paying the fee to Equity
Use your charm.Couldn't I just kill her?
Now comes the hard part, paying the fee to Equity
Of course, I would be happier if you were coming to Phoenix.
