What does go on Inside & Out at an audition...

I am curious...

I'm aware of what occurs within the doors at our closed auditions at MPAC, Mandurah (because I'm in there) but every audition seems to include a colourful influx of ideas that roam the corridors.

From Volunteers outside who declare random things of what "They're" looking for to another actor quite wittingly dropping the idea that they want someone tall. Better chance for them now... It is another sub-plot at auditions that does keep me amused but I thought I'd open it for a best of... worst of... Do the Directors really pre-cast?

This might be a nice opportunity for Thesbians to gain some insight into the process. :-)

And for some to realize they left an audition for no real reason. :-( (Somebody told them they couldn't sing?...)

Not particularly related is the latest auditions we held. Wizard of Oz at MPAC. It had it's own novel of antics produced. But I was there. I probably deserve much of the blame for who got in. (That and the 100 plus who auditioned...) I'm the MD. The genre is 'Musical' folks. I tended to think that the MD had a large part to play. Apparently not all MD's in the community circle have done this. Actors enter into a new play with a lovely view of how things run from time to time...

So let me know... What does go on at an audition?
