I wanted to be a theater kid so bad in high school but the few times I actually got accepted into the cast, everyone, including the directors, treated me like crap. Now, I’m content just belting showtunes alone in my room

[@basketoffruit4485]

I'm really sad to hear that. I wish you many more years of happily belting out songs from musicals with people who treat you with the kindness and respect you deserve. Much love.

You don’t have be in a theater production to be a theater kid

I love musicals so much and I’ve watched so many, and I’m a theatre kid and love performing on stage. My big problem is that I can’t really sing very well. So I really want to be in a bunch of musicals, but even if I do get in, I will most likely be in ensemble

[@GRE4S3RSS]

do lots of vocal warm ups daily (this really helped my voice) and keep believing that your voice will get better the more you practice i also know a few things to keep your voice healthy if you wanna know

[@northernwords9966]

@@GRE4S3RSS I’d love to know if you have some suggestions. I was able to have two singing lessons but I won’t be able to have any more until the summer is over. Any suggestions you have would be amazing

[@GRE4S3RSS]

@@northernwords9966 to keep your voice healthy: warm up before singing, its okay to not to do it sometimes but try to avoid not doing it, avoid clearing your throat, instead drink something, keep your voice hydrated (drink lots of water and steam is also a great way!), its great to have days where you rest your voice, and try to avoid whispering a lot, thats all that comes to my mind rn and that was stuff my choir teacher taught to improve: vocal warm ups are GREAT, i went from d3-f#6 to d#3-b6 and now im at d#3-d7 from doing 30 minutes to an hour long of warming up my voice. try to project, remember opening up your jaw to at least 2 finger spaces is a great way to project, also, when opening your jaw more, DO NOT OPEN IT SO MUCH TO WHERE IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR YELLING, its great to annunciate certain letters too. understand the emotional value of a song and also what you think it means is a great way to involve yourself more in the song. if you feel tension in your jaw, try to release that tension too if theres a will, theres a way, and remember, it takes an ensemble to make a show. youll definitely improve over time with practice, and be confident in your singing! directors can tell when your nervous. i thought i would always be ensemble, like how you think, but now i have a role with a solo, thats proof you shouldnt give up. if you would like to, keep me updated, i would love to hear about how your singing is going along and ill give you more tips if i find/remember more

[@Ren_zilla-12]

i've got some musical theater casting tea from my partner if anyone wants to hear it. (feast upon this ye theatre kids) SO there have only been four productions in the school's relatively new theater program and every single one of them has had almost the exact same cast list with little to no variation in every one of them. BLATANT favoritism on the casting director's part but most other people get in the ensemble so not really a big deal. right? WRONG they announce the musical is the PJO musical and everyone goes BONKERS because yea it's great. BUT THEN ALMOST NO ONE GETS IN EXCEPT THE SAME 15 PEOPLE and the girl everyone was POSITIVE was getting annabeth (who literally has the most amazing voice you've ever heard and has been in so many productions before this) didn't even get in. instead they casted this other girl who (1) does NOT in ANY way have an annabeth voice (2) is the president of the theater club so it looks like they just casted themselves AND (3) DIDN'T EVEN SHOW UP TO THE MANDATORY DANCE AUDITION AND WENT TO A PARTY INSTEAD AND STILL GOT THE LEAD. (to be clear you have to sign a form that says that if you miss that then you're out of the running no exceptions) anyway there's your daily dose of theater drama :D (this is just stuff my partner has told me XDDD so not mine. just thought that the fellow theater girlies would appreciate some tea)

[@willing2wait4it]

I WOULD BE FUMINGGGGG

[@dashingfox3797]

The way our school just had the exact SAME thing happen with PJO. I made it into ensemble but this stuff is MESSED UP as hell. Feels like the show is cursed with how small it’s cast size is, recipe for disaster 😭

[@Princesspeachfan456]

I would absolutely rage,also thanks for the tea.

[@Amatureb]

That’s awful, especially because PJO is such a good one to do with a lot of people. It’s my favourite book and musical so I would be so annoyed if to happened to me

[@Dreamingforinfinity456]

I hate! Biased casting directors. Like bro why, “This one has talent and can handle the role, this one isn’t very good and can’t handle the role. Who should I give it to? Well I like the second one better so them. Who cares if they are good at singing, acting, or dancing.” Like when is the logic in this?

another show,another being ensemble
