when certain people audition for certain plays and they are not cast they still expect to receive a courtesy call from the director. manners go a long way, especially for super sensitive and shaky performers

Putting on my "feeling a trifle hypocrtical" hat i'd like to applaud Leah's, Jackie's and Jason's sentiments.

I'm guilty of not always making personal contact with every single person that auditions. Sometimes it really does take just a bit more than 30 secs. It's fun for instance tracking down people who write the wrong phone number on their audition form or who leave it blank. Sometimes it might be a genuine oversight. And sometimes, much as you don't want to leave a message on a machine, after a couple of wasted calls, you just have to.

May i suggest that, rather than letting it chew you out, it never hurts to ring and ask? I wouldn't regard that as pushy or in-my-face, i'd take it as genuine interest and commitment.

Cheers
Grant
