There's really nothing you can do to change the situation no matter how it turns out so just let the "roles" fall where they may and don't sweat it. Why get worked up about something that you have no control over?
Don't spazz out until you are up for a role that you are going to get paid to play!!
Good luck

I used to have a ritual after every audition. I would go out for ice cream and then go to a movie. I imagine it is too late tonight to do either but my reasoning behind this was I knew that I had done the best I could and the only thing I could do now was distract myself. So what can you do until that cast list is posted to completely distract yourself? Watch a movie, read a great book, talk to friends, bake cookies.....anything you can think of that will stop you from thinking. "What ifs" are our worst enemies. You will not be able to accomplish anything by worrying about the end result. Let those great comments from everyone sink in as confirmation that you did a great job and now release it. Let us know how you did. But for now let it go and know you are wonderful no matter what! the play was "High School Musical" and I got Gabriella!!! :) Report It * You must be logged into Answers to add comments.
