it is true. choir overrules a lot. & there is favoritism in the system. especially this being a musical. i'm sorry that you didn't get the part you wanted. i being an active choir student know how the system works, and i'm sorry you got the wrath of it.
Mrs. McLary is also the head of choir boosters, and has been for a very long time. But for a moment, I honestly thought that she was going to have an even playing field for this, despite her connections... Do you know if you're going to accept the role or not?
I don't know. Part of me just wants to tell them all to go fuck themselves, but another part says I should just take the role, because it will give me more experience and everyone will just say I'm a totally self-involved dickhole if I refuse it. But goddammit, just going through every rehearsal will be an endurance trial because I'll keep on thinking of how I could do it better, and every little mistake would just piss me off to no end. This might be one of those times that I have to take a stand, because those fuckers know that that shit is wrong, and they need to understand that some people won't lie down and take it, but that's just me on my soapbox. Yet, I really need to get used to being effed in the casting world, because it is an inevitability of an acting career. I just hope that later on the people that are cast instead of me are more qualified.
p.s.: fuck mr. query for going along with all this.
Jon, i know its terrible and you probably do deserve better. But I do think that you should accept the role. Especially if you want to pursue this as a career, it's going to happen. And it's better to do your best at that part and make THAT the part that everyone notices. I promise, you can do it. You're a great actor Jon, and you don't always need a lead role to prove that. So, don't give up my friend.
I'm probably going to just go to the reading, and if he really sucks, then I'll quit. It's a matter of my own mental stability. I was so into that role, and confident of my own ability to play it that I can't imagine anyone else doing it, and I will be continuously critical of him and I'll go bananas. And I wanted to effing SING! Don't choir kids get to do enough of that? And plus, my vocal instructor is going to be PISSED.
