Calling all!
Sat, 1 May 2004, 06:13 pmHi, i'm 16 and directing/choreographing my school's Christian Rock Est. This act consists of 91 girls, they're all dancers, majority are all quite bitchy! And people up the back/with small roles etc hate me and make it rather obvious!
This is only a minority but still, I planned for everyone to enjoy themselves and have fun and learn more about God but they're not these girls are bringing my morale down.
I'm only a few years older than them all so there's not a lot that can be done!
I 'm really in the pits right now and there's only 14 days to go! I feel like quitting but know I can't. Many tears have been shed by me, it's constantly on my mind, I feel awful the whole time.
Is this normal director behaviour or am I going insane?
Any suggestions on how to help me!?

Yes it's normal director behaviour, but mind you, most of them are insane!
I don't claim to be particularly religious, but I would interpret this as learning about God in a real-world situation.
You need to find inner strength and focus from somewhere.
You need to persist. Persistence is just another word for Faith. If you didn't have faith, you'd never persist.
You need to 'love your enemy', or at least, find out where they're coming from and what they want to get out of this. You're in the best position to help them, even if they appear to be hindering you at present. Help them anyway.
And in the big picture, what's important? Why are you here, doing what you're doing? Follow your heart. It might not turn out how you planned, don't stress about it. Something good will come out of it.
I'm rather of the belief that theatre was invented before religion...it kind of works in the same way.
