If you believe it!

The snow is falling outside in BIG white fluffy balls of fun and hope. Could it be, oh could it be. I just got a call-back from Stanley Kaplan agency that I, yes I got a callback!!! This was for an audition I did back on December 1st, 2008 for the feature film, "The Sorcerers Apprentice".

I recall being on the set of that ever miserable, CUPID, all the way out at Hellsgate studios by the Triboro Bridge. I was in holding area and contemplating whether I should cancel on the audition altogether. I have had SO many auditions which were a waste of time to go to. For instance, those "go-sees" where they see you for 2 seconds, take a picture and that's it. You waste an entire day just for that.

This was a little different as I snuck out of holding area, and luckily had a good friend on set to let me know what was going on. So I took the LONG trip from all the way from the edge of Queens to audition for this.

Normally I would not give a shit about these auditions, though this one was for a Russian Woman, and I knew I could do this part. Still I went and flew into this audition with real anticipation, especially when I saw the "Svetlana" Brighton Beach babe audition in front of me.

I though for sure she would get it as she was younger and prettier than me. Yet I went into that audition with all might and I know I did the best I could. After 2 weeks of getting devastating news, I really thought I was done in for and had no hope in hell, never mine hellsgate!

LO and behold, after almost giving up completely, I got a call today from Jasmine at the agency that I got a callback and the people at Disney WANT to see me!!!!!!

I am taken aback right now. A callback means nothing until you get the part. Still this is a HUGE breakthrough! I really HOPE I land this part. I fell it is meant for me.

Listening to a track on youtube.com for Chorus Line and the track is " I Hope I get it". They may have been dancers, though it is the same grueling struggle, trying to make it. Trying to get some rewards for all your efforts. I HOPE I get it!!
