| | Ask the Auditor |
Quick tip ...
Why didn't *I* get that part? Directors help keep a theater viable - besides following an artistic vision. They must balance what the company wants with which actors audition. Your skills must balance well with others who would be cast. Its a question of timing & chemistry & - YES! - fate. All as difficult as finding the right career, meeting a soulmate or making a leap in learning. Don't sweat it - there is enough theater to go around for all of us. Need some advice or have a question, ask theAuditor

Created by a longtime talent agent, who was fed up with all of the wasted time, money and heartache expended by ill-prepared "newbies." You'll laugh, you'll sigh and you'll be forever grateful.
