I recorded this intro while waiting in the hospital waiting room during my Grandmother's surgery. The recording I talk about took place April 26, 2007. It was my second open call for the Annie national tour. They had me sing "New York, New York" again, and then "Easy Street." I cut out all the talking after the song and the part where, when I walked out of the audition room, some actors waiting in line clapped for me. Ha!

Auditions stories

Walking in the middle of Broadway at noon in a street fair. The streets around my apartment are shut off and people are grilling corn, selling food and cheap clothes and it's a beautiful spring day. I narrate all the stuff I see.

8:30am I feel defeated from Thursday's round of auditions and today is Saturday. Friday I stayed inside all day. Confidence is in the crapper. Going to audition anyway.

Fast forward past the middle of this file to hear me in the actual audition room. I sing New York, New York and Oh What a Beautiful Mornin.

In midtown NYC, went to bed at 9pm and got woken up by my roomates at 2am and couldn't go back to sleep. From 2-6:30am I worked on projects. Sign up for Drowsey Chaperone audition at Telsey Casting, talking to girl about podcasting, first time using my EMC card, went to Chelsea studios signed up for CATS audition (#141) at 9:30am, did the Chaperone audition, then to the Greater Tuna audition, they didn't like my improvised monologue, walking to CATS audition.

Got my EMC card, lunch before audition at Olive Garden, yesterday I interviewed one of the producers of Podcampnyc yesterday, might be filming my friend's catering event.

improvcabaret.com, trip to WFMU indie radio station, homeless man and many police cars, conversation about being creative and lazy at Starbucks in the West Village, maybe my stuff isn't as good as i thought it was.

improvcabaret.com, Callback at World of Disney store, Shuffle might be returned, Acting is not my favorite thing to do, Why did I come to New York, everyone hates their job, World of Coke building.

improvcabaret.com. 1am, walking back home from the Apple store. I bought a Shuffle, though I considered something more expensive. Checking out was the best part of the shopping experience. Receipt was emailed to me. Again, complaining about my insurance company and their fax drama. Apple customer service is creative.

Walk the length of Central Park to the Apple store at 11pm to buy a new Shuffle. Designed an ad for a new Fringe artist client. Working on the Orlando Fringe Festival myspace profile. I am a ball of nerves and ideas.
