Well after my more than horrible audition last week, I have decided to jump right back on the horse and keep auditioning. For a little while I was really depressed, and I think now I am more disappointed than depressed, but in either case, I have decided to continue to chase my dream rather than give up and get a “real job” so to speak. I cannot imagine doing anything else and I think I would feel like more of a failure if I did not go back. I started off today by looking through the Chicago Neighborhood Directory for any theaters in my area or at the very least not too far away from me. Surprisingly enough, there were a lot. A lot of them are not paying theaters though, which is fine with me for the most part I would take any position right now just to gain the experience and get back on stage. I do hope I get some actual work too. I know it will not pay much and I will have to find a second job, but it will be worth it. My roommate also knows a lot of people that keep him informed about the theater community in general and what is going on. He usually passes the information onto me when he is done taking a look at it first.
