I had to roll my eyes at myself a bit this afternoon, when upon reading my Backstage, I realized of course there would be no casting updates for New York ... you know, given our recent hurricane.
Sometimes the pervasive sense of hustle clouds my logic.
My days feel SO long lately. Today was particularly daunting, rehearsal, a five hour modeling gig, tutoring clients, and the second to last Turandot performance of the season. I'll miss the show... Specialized movement is so much more engaging than what we supernumeraries usually do!
Maintaining motivation is hard some days. I was talking to an actress at this modeling gig, and she laughed at me when I shared that I was only two years out of college and worried I wasn't booking enough work. It's a recession for everyone, and there really are so many mitigating factors that make landing your dream role difficult.
There are only two auditions this week, Footloose in Wisconsin (I really don't want to go to Wisconsin) and an audition for Arizona Broadway Theater, which I really should not have turned down two years ago because they were offering $200 a week. Oy vey... perils of a performing arts life. I plan to go to both on principle, to practice my auditioning craft and hone my somewhat sleepy skill set.
In other news, another Nor-easter is heading our way Wednesday, and a storm of an entirely different kind may crash come Tuesday night.
PLEASE GO VOTE! Your country is depending on you!
