Audition Observation

This is the one night where, in my opinion, the atmosphere at CVH sometimes changes just a little..

We're a close group, brought closer by the gala back in February and we all get on exceptionally well most of the time but where auditions are concerned a few people tend to close ranks. Everyone obviously wants to do their best to get the part(s) they've set their heart on.

Human nature, maybe, or just "show business"? I wonder ?

Don't get me wrong. Everyone is supportive and anyone, newcomers or regulars who get up to read or sing will get clapped and cheered and congratulated for doing their best. Once the show has been cast, everyone just gets on with whatever part they've been given and throws themselves into it 100%. There rarely seems to be hard feelings or fallout.

So after 3 hours of dance, script and singing auditions we all await our 'fate!'

One things for sure - I certainly wouldn't want to be Director or MD this weekend, having to cast the show.


So now the waiting game begins...
