Auditions and cast selection

Auditions are always scary!
Kayla wasn't sure if she wanted to audition and be rehearsing for a show all summer or just relax for the rest of her summer.
Well, auditions were at 6pm and at 4:30pm she was still undecided.
She decided to go and watch. Then after a few minutes she decided to audition. They always ask for volunteers and Kayla volunteered to go second and did a great job singing, "I Know Things Now." They didn't call her back up to read from the script this day, so we went home and returned the following night. She was called up three times to read the character, Sally and once acting as Woodstock. We went home that night thinking she had a chance of possibly being cast as Sally, Woodstock or chorus.
Well, to our surprise she got the lead of Lucy! This part is HUGE! With over 110 lines to memorize and lots of singing .... she is excited and already getting it down. She will be transformed into Lucy in no time. It is great to see her come alive with this character!
