Hey actors & actresses.

My 13 year old came out of his first high school theater audition in tears. He forgot some lines to his monologue & is devastated.

Can you tell him your worst audition story or give some advice?

He’s always loved theater & I don’t want him to give up.
Here he is as one of the leads in his middle school production of The Little Prince. I think it was hard to go from being cast as a lead to not even making the cut in high school.
When I asked him why this audition was so important, he said it was Richard III, his favorite Shakespeare play. He’s a serious Shakespeare nerd.

He’s bummed because the high school theater department does a LOT of musicals and this was his chance for this year to do a real play.
You’ve all been amazingly kind and my son wanted me to thank you.

At first he said he wasn’t going to bother going to physicality auditions, which are tomorrow.

After a bit of encouragement from the Twitterverse, he’s ready to go back out there and fail again tomorrow. 😂
