Sorry to whine but My DH got me up so latethis morning, then I went to take a ballet class and I ****** it up. Then I waited at a broadway audition for 5 hours and then they told us Oh sorry we cant see you AFTER they kept telling us to wait around. There are a couple other things that went wrong today but those a more personal. Im sorry I just wanted to get it out to somebody sometimes I HATE being a dancer

I'm non-eq too. I took 4 years off from acting and started back about 6 months ago. I feel ancient at my age still being non equity. I wonder if i see you at auditions sometimes!? Are you a singer and actor too?

Re: Girls Im having a really bad day
Yeah its a rough business we love. I am a dancer first and for most. I sing too but only because I have to. I DO NOT act. I am the worst actor ever haaaa. I had like 8 lines when I was in A Chorus Line and I was Scared out of my mind to go on stage haaaaaa. Do you go to dancer calls??? I also work at Steps the dance studio. That would be funny if we actually know eachother

I'm a actor and singer. I move just enough to get by..Do you know the movie All That Jazz about Bob Fosse? Do you remember the guy in the beginning at the audition who dances TERRIBLY? That would be me at a dancer call
How are the classes at STEPS? I used to go to Broadway Dance Center cause they were so close to our place but they moved..what do you teach?

I took classes at Steps back in the day when I was first starting out (geez talking mid 90's here)- they had great classes then!
I'm sorry you had a bad day. Hey think of it this way- you coulda done what I did- leave the business and teach bratty kids and have a bad day with THEM!

Re: Girls Im having a really bad day
You girls all have my DREAM JOB! Seriously, if I could choose to do anything I wanted I would be on Broadway....
I did musical theater and dance when I was younger- but gave it up after high school. I'm thinking of getting back into it...but I need voice lessons to brush up and help me prepare an audition piece. I'm just talking about community theater, here- definitely wouldn't be good enough for broadway.
Anyone know any good voice teachers? I looked on craigslist and contacted a few people...but you never know with craigslist. . .

I don't know any voice teachers on LI unfortunately I do have the names of a few people here in the city though! What theatres are you interested in auditioning for? When I was a teenager I worked at lots of theatres on the Island. Let me know if you need any suggestions
