    It's so true!! My fav. bad audition: "That was good. Now, could you belt the whole song, but like, up an octave?" I was not auditioning for a belt role.

    "We're looking for a cross between Julie Andrews and Harvey Firestein with a little less heart and a little more funny" I can't stop laughing xD

    Ok the pop song one is me... But that's my fault for auditioning for "Legally Blonde"-type musicals with a "Phantom of the Opera"-type voice.

    This was great. When I auditioned to be in my old college's theater program, I had only been acting for about a year and a half, and only auditioned for stuff in my school and church. Never had I done anything outside of them, and had no idea what I was doing really. The pianist, who is nationally known for being amazing, had to restart the song twice, first time because of tempo and then she messed up some notes. I was so nervous and scared. I was blown away at how well prepared the other kids were and how talented they were and I was in awe. Like, what the hell am I even doing here. I didn't even bring dance clothes or own dance shoes. It's hilarious to think of now. Somehow, I was accepted into the program. Ah what a difference 4 years makes. I would own that audition now.

    the worst audition i ever had was for seussical the musical, and i was singing notice me horton, and the pianist sounded like a 12 yr old level one pianist playing the song for the first time, and then had the nerve to tell me that he was trying to follow my "sloppy tempo". i got in, but still.

    "On my fourth bad audition, the Subway said to me, 'No N-Train.'" Which means he'll be late/miss for his audition. :p(I assume.)

    my worst audition was sophomore year and our school did "Little Women" and I went in with "what it means to be a friend" from 13: the musical. I didn't have much experience with auditions but I asked the pianist to compose it 2 steps down and she goes "I'm sorry I can't". then I sang out of my vocal range for 16 bars and looked the directors in the eye (I NOW KNOW, DO NOT). yeah.....I didn't get cast
