Made it! Who would have thunk-it?
Bye bye Fiddler on the Roof 2006 and HELLO Summer Theater with VMT 2007. For my audition I rocked the house with Mein Heir from Cabaret and I got the kudos of some of our more, classically trained Ziegfeld gals and did a pretty darn good reading for Frau Schmidt (housekeeper) Austrian/German accent and all.
However, it appears that I am at that wonderful age for limited middle of the road-gal-roles. Too old to play a 20-something and too young to play anything over 40. Which means I get to wear a habit and "fill out" the nun chorus. Now, I had a speaking role, albeit, a short one and I had about a minute solo last year so ask me if I am bitter at all and watch the drama soar! I realized something this weekend at rehersal, which is now that I am back doing theater, I really need to put myself out there. I am not talking head shots, etc.. but I want to be involved in perhaps a more meatier role.
For now, I will have to settle for Sister Shaken, not stirred.
