I don't know who was more nervous at the Love Negotiated auditions: me or the actors we saw. We started the audition process by opening Swebenborg Hall, turning on the lights and getting everyone their scripts.
It must have been arduous for the actors. Director DJ Sullivan thought the best way to see how the actors related to the actresses was for each actor to read with a number of actresses. Good thing all the actresses were already cast (we had done a reading last November). Good thing for us, that is.
Can you imagine being nervous about an audition and then having to read the same scene with three actresses? Some actors were then given a monologue to read as well. We called it Tag Team Auditioning.
Luckily no one got hurt. We saw some great actors. Of course our actresses are already great! So we're going to bring you an excellent cast with great actors. We just don't know in what order. We'll keep you posted.
