I recently found out that I have the lead role in an operetta called Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert & Sullivan... This is some pretty big news and it's a HUGE show and very well known in my community. When I auditioned for it, it was my first audition out of high school and I thought I did terrible on audition. I've never been part of any of this company's production before and here I am, 18 years old, never been in a play outside of high school, never had a lead, and I got the lead by a landslide. I went out to my car and cried after the audition. And then I get a huge post on my facebook consisting of 43 comments saying CONGRATS ON GETTING THE LEAD! I checked my email and I got the part of Mabel.... I thought I was dreaming, and I'm still in disbelief.
I guess part of me is worried they will decide they made a mistake and give the part to someone else. That I'm not good enough and they actually quite dissatisfied with the choice they made cry . I've been studying Opera for 3 years and this has been my dream role. It just seems so impossible... My opposite who plays Froedric and he is amazing and I'm afraid I can't measure up and hold my part. sigh.... so much uncertainty. sad
