Her voice is just so gentle and so pure and comforting.

 
 

Ok, so I am new to this NYC audition thing. I've gone on probably 7 auditions in NYC total so I still am trying to figure out what I'm doing. All I can say is bless the souls that do open calls week after week. My soul has died from going to the Beauty and the Beast call yesterday where 300 something women scaled and belted their way in the goal of achieving a few select roles in a non-union tour. The bar cut was 8 from the beginning seeing as there were so many people there and they didn't want to type. I've never hoped to be typed out but part of me wishes I was at this call. It was the fastest audition I had ever had. I don't even really remember it, but all I sang was "I was unwise with eyes unable to see" and I was done. Hey, it was 8 bars. Apparently it may have been cut time. I still need to look up what that was. It was fine. The only thing that bugged me as that they didn't even look at me. That kinda stung. I kind of felt like they felt I was wasting their time. I left feeling low. I know them's the breaks, but I think the breaks are mean. In OTHER news I totally saw Natalie Weiss and she somehow knew who I was and I was like that is crazy and I should have said OMG I know your lover Shelly Bort, but I didn't. I am special like that.

 
 

Clearly this is a cruel crime against justice. Still, to be fair, I DID get a shoutout. WHILE they were making out . Whatever.

 
 

There isn't that much more to report than what is in the title, but it TRULY is uncanny. I went in expecting a 7up type of flavor, but what scent drifts toward my schnoz? Coca Cola! Actually delightful considering it brings back memories of my childhood (even though I don't drink soda? Hmmmm??) So if you're looking for the scent of cola cola without the calories, try Toms of Maine Lemon Lime Mouthwash. It gets the Alex Heinen stamp of approval.

 
 

Seriously, traveling 2 hours to see Miranda sing two songs isn't crazy. Is it?
