Auditions!

Thanks to a lot of PR work (good job, Anthony!), Bay State was officially "everywhere" this year. We know, because we asked all of our 50+ (!!!) auditioning students where they heard about us.

Long story short, auditions went well. Extremely well. There were so many great actors, and the whole day went (apparently) flawlessly. Mad props to the crew for keeping things organized, and thanks to the many of our current actors who read scenes with their potential future costars.

Tonight, we called back thirteen people for six roles. We made them read different scenes than those they auditioned with, and paired them up with other new people to see what the group dynamic would be like. Valentina and Laura, two of our current actors, acted as stand-ins for all non-auditioning roles.

And we reached a decision. The producers, directors, and I sat down after callbacks and--more or less--screamed with joy. We think we've found the perfect six actors to become the next generation of the show. They're awesome. I wish I could tell you who they are, but you'll find out soon enough.

Hey, they don't even know yet.

I will do an Auditions-themed picture post asap, don't worry.
Next week: Two new sets, lots of new scenes, lots of new actors, and Dean Elmore guest stars!

Go make some waves!
