Originally Posted By lesmisfan cool thanks tcsnwhite, although i would consider green army men characters, but i guess with disney, it could mean anything.

Originally Posted By lesmisfan well i went and i was not chosen oh well. First we did a dance routine and were asked to dance it. Then we were put in two different groups, good dancers and not so good. i was in the not so good group. Then they took the good dancing group into another place. Then they had us line up in a straight line while they looked us over, im guessing for characters. They asked about four or five people i think to step forward. Then they left with someone, and we were thanked for coming and said we were free to go and they gave us info on upcoming auditions for atmosphere characters and auditions for electrical parade auditions. and then i went to disneyland for a couple hours afterwards

Sometimes there's just no telling why the judges of these contests choose certain ducklings over others. From stories we've heard in the past, politics sometimes plays a part. Oh, well, just don't let yourself become discouraged by any of this. The fact that you auditioned at all shows that you have courage. You must continue to believe in yourself because my sisters and I certainly do. Hugs to you, dear.

You never know what they are looking for and you just may be want they need next time good luck.....

Community centers and places like that usually offer reasonably priced classes, opposed to a studio which is usually more expensive.
