You as a

should find purpose in every phrase spoken during a performance. Each should mean something to you personally. Even a phrase that on the surface seems ordinary can have meaning.

Gang - It's ok to make the "wrong" character choice, as long as you make a STRONG character choice. Whatever choice you make, own it! Inhabit it fully! And if it’s not a fit this time, they’ll respect you as a fearless performer, and very likely think of you on the next!

Understanding the character you’re auditioning for, and doing all the research u can on the creators, their history & tastes, and what they hope to achieve with this project, can give you a much better grasp on how to approach your audition.

“No” (from an agent or talent buyer) is NOT a bad word, so don’t let it sting. It simply means “Not yet”, or “Not right now.” Keep working hard on your skill-building. And the second you’re ready w/ what they want, that answer will change.

Hate the sound of your voice?
Think it sounds weird?
Well, take comfort.
Nearly ALL of us feel that way.
Or at least we did at the start.
Remember…
There’s room for ALL voice types.
Yes, even yours.
It’s NOT about your voice type…
It’s about what you DO with it!

Gang - Careful that your work isn’t “too clean.“ Often reads can carry a heavy gloss of perfect technique, but lose the sense of variety & spontaneity. Technique is key, but remember too to lean into the messiness & surprise of authentic humanity.

Beware of adopting speech patterns in your auditions. They’re deadly.
To solve this issue:
- THINK LESS, LISTEN MORE

We artists are sensitive creatures. No matter how comfortable you are with someone - or who the person is - when anyone yells at you or talks down to you, you immediately feel that deep, burning sting.
Don’t become hardened - keep a supple heart. And keep loving.

Just overheard…
What’s the difference between CATS & COMMAS?
- Cats have claws at the end of their paws…
- And a comma’s a pause end of a clause.
No groans, please…

SUNDAY RESET:
Remember gang - Success doesn't come to you - you go to IT. Don’t be afraid to fail; you WILL a certain % of the time - and that’s a fact. But failure’s just a part of our learning, and another rung on the ladder to success.
