I felt nervous all yesterday afternoon. It had been so long since I’d auditioned. I forgot that nervous jumpy feeling. But I was also frustrated because there was a time in my life when auditioning was fun, not nerve-wracking.
But then, when I showed up, I found myself stepping right back into that old space of calm and excitement. I wasn’t nervous in the least. I actually had quite a bit of fun.
My only regret is that it was video-taped for the director so I only got to do it once; I didn’t get to play, which is the real fun part.
After this experience, I might just start going out and auditioning more. Just for the fun of it.
