The New Play

For those of you who do not know, we, the Blue House Players, will be putting on the production of Anne Frank in April. Yesterday we had our auditions for this play. There were several people who were trying out for Anne Frank, and many who failed at getting the part, since there could only be one Anne Frank in the play. In all honesty, I believe that the parts that were given in the play were very well casted; however there are some that would care to argue. This is why, a lot of the times, I absolutely dread having auditions. Not because I am afraid that I wont get a part, or that I won´t get the part that I wanted, but because there are a lot people in drama who are sore losers. If they don´t get the part they want then they threaten to quit the class. First off, if you are a senior (for most of them are that complain), then grow up! In a lot of clubs and sports you can call seniority, but not in drama. Drama is about who is best for the part, not about who has been in the class longer. GROW UP! Then for those that are not casted and got put in Lights or Backstage or House and you complain... give me a break! The one person that always talks of putting on the best production and this and this and this... well obviously you were not good enough as to be able to portray a character correctly, or rather there were other people better suited for the part. To be able to put on the best production of Anne Frank, the best possible cast list was made after reviewing all of the people; and I emphasize: the BEST cast list. So take one for the good of the play and sit back, shut up, and stop the crying, because really, it got old 2 years ago.
