Quote from my mom....

"I think it's ood you got chorus. It means you can have the fun of the show without being soooooo serious."

Um, too bad theatre is one of the few things in this world I can take seriously.

Ha. I dream of broadway but can't land a lead in a highschool show?

So much for that....

*sigh* well I'm sorry you didn't get the part [or one of the parts you wanted] and I'm sure you've been hearing that a lot today, but guess what. life is full of disappoinments, but it goes on. And you know what, I'm sure there are some people who haven't gotten a lead at all in their high school career, and I'm sure there were people who were upset that they didn't get into Anne Frank. But you did

don't give up because of one show, and I'll tell you a secret my cosa director told me. Highschool theatre is just that. highschool theatre.

You're a good actress and you're talented, but the most important thing is believing in yourself. DON'T give up, if you wanna be on broadway get out there and do it. I know you can.

and by the way, you did get chorus. And I understand what you mom is saying, she's saying it's ok, just have fun.

theatre is serious, I take it seriously too, so I understand how you are hurt by that, but you gotta just have fun. And sophomore year is hard, especially if you're in honors and AP classes, so put the extra time into your schooling, and focus on college cause if you wanna be on broadway you wanna get into a good school, with an amazing theatre program.

check out Emerson, Fullerton Junior College, AMDA the new york campus, Ithaca, NYU, Cornish school of the Arts.

NYU feeds into Broadway so you're connected to all the local auditions, check out NYU's Tish School of the arts.

UCSD, UCI, UCSB, UCLA, and USD all have AMAZINNNNG theatre programs.

Go to Collegeboard.comand do a search, find some stuff you like

okay Coco i love you to death but, shut your face. Honestly, you know how many kids cried their eyes/hearts out because they didnt get into the show? and here you are complaining because you got chorus honestly, honey. Reality check : just because you didnt get the part you wanted doesnt mean you're not important. Plus, chorus is hella fun. You get a lot of fun memories because you're backstage a lot and you dont have any lines to memorize. So i guess what im saying is: Get on your knees and thank the good Lord you got in at all. Dont get me wrong though, i mean this in the best possible way. I love you to death. Just check yourself okay? stop complaning and be greatful,and if you cant do that you might as well drop out theres a lot of girls that would love to have your part.
Whew
please dont take this the wrong way
im not trying to be bitchy
