...The auditions were fun. And little tiring on the ears.
They had just called a few guys in to read and sing for Gaston in Beauty & The Beast. Some good singers. No truly ideal one, but, then again, I'm not the one who has to make the casting decisions.
Then came those tapping feet for 42nd Street. We saw some very good men this afternoon. Alas, being in a room filled with 12 tap dancers can be a little "loud". As the choreographer was teaching the combinations, it was "bad enough" hearing all the non-unison taps... However, as soon as everyone got up to speed... The sound of 12 heels and toes doing slams all at the same time... WOW! Made my head hurt after a while. -The choreographer was also teaching the original Gower Champion choreography - very fast, surprisingly syncopated, LOTS of sound!
Again, it was a good dance call, but I was soooo in need of some quiet after leaving the studio.
