Twist of fate

So, apparently, when you yell "Crap" in the middle of an audition, you don't get a part. Who knew??? So, as I stated on my audition form that I wouldn't accept a chorus role, I received an email earlier this week stating that I didn't get a solo, thanks for auditioning, etc. Funny thing...I happened to be on the phone with a friend of mine as I opened the email and told her the news. She mentioned that another theater had just had auditions for a show, but didn't have any women audition. Interesting...so I emailed the director and asked if he was still looking for someone. He had me come in the next day to read. And I got the part.

Moral of the story? I have no idea. But what an interesting fate of events, don't you think?

I'll be playing the role of Margot in "Dial M for Murder". I didn't know anything about the show before I read for it, except for what I found online about the movie. I am the only female in the cast. My husband in the show (played by an actor who has previously played my husband on stage!) hires someone to kill me, when things go horribly wrong, and my character ends up killing the would-be murderer. You'll have to rent the movie or come see the show to find out the rest. I guess I need to start working on my screams...and a British accent.
