Y'all seem to have good experiences in musical theatre… last time I was in anything, we did Annie Jr. I was cast as a policeman… police man, so they made me dress like a dude which was really bad for my insecure 11-year-old self who was frequently called a boy for no dang reason. I also had no lines. They just had me appear once and leave.
Anyone ever heard of The Drowsy Chaperone? My high school did it a couple of years ago. I was supposed to accompany on piano, but I was inexperienced in show tunes and ended up passing on the role to someone better than me. But my best friend was in it and got to play the role of a gangster baker, and she was so funny! Honestly, the whole musical was hilarious, and everyone did such a good job.

I have been a male police officer twice now

@Becfromthedead group

I just had this really odd memory. In that same musical, some guy in my grade played Sandy, and Sandy got a singing role??? I can't figure out whether all of that is real, but if it is… yikes…

Treasure it always, keep it with you, it's part of you now!

@thehobbit

I had my callback and everyone said I did well 😊 I was super nervous though. My legs were shaking so bad😣 but I think that I managed okay 👌🏻

im sure you definitely did better than me at my first solo audition, it required me preparing two monologues. By the time I was done my teacher was concerned i was going to faint and made me lay down on the stage.

@basil_

I can't believe I have to go to school everyday to hear all the stupid ass kids around me saying things like "I'm so depressed" Or "I want to kill myself." Or "this class makes me so depressed" or pretending to shoot themselves or using homosexuality as a joke/insult. It pisses me off but I can't do anything about it because those kids are still assholes and will keep doing it to impress each other. (all these phrases being used as jokes)
It especially hurts when its someone whos heard you rant about this but does it anyway.

@basil_

I see it in every class, almost every five minutes. I hope someday I can give some sort of presentation about mental health and just stare them down as I do it.

@thehobbit

i saw that a lot in high school but now that im in college, especially at a Christian college, im seeing that a lot less. i hope that someday you find a place where you aren't surrounded by that and feel more comfortable.

Yeah. Me and a few of my friends, one of which is not straight but I'm not sure what she is, eat lunch by a few guys like that. I almost slapped one today for stealing a car and ignoring my friend and I telling him it was for someone DESPITE HIM KNOWING DAMN WELL THAT US 4 SIT THERE EVERY DAMN DAY! It just URGH!!!!!

@evastardust groupRRAAAARRL

I got cast in Bye Bye Birdie at a community theatre near my school (which is really exciting cause my school only does one play a year and I haven't done a musical in literally 6 years cause the director at my school doesn't believe in musicals). But I was doing it with my friend and we got cast as the same part (there's two casts) but we're in separate casts. Which means I gonna have to . . . talk to people. I don't know. And I saw a couple of cool-looking people at callbacks but they're all in her cast. aaaahhhhsjdsjjfldkgklpeopllllleee

Ooooh, I love BBB!!! I was in it in 7th grade. I was a teen in Telephone Hour, a reporter in Fine Upstanding Patriotic Healthy Normal American Boy, and a mom in Honestly Sincere (my favorite sing in the show!!), Kids, and Rosie. It was really fun!!! Just….your hair….it will probably not be fun to comb out.

Yeah, people are idiots. Tbh I don't understand how you don't realize that depression is a thing. Like, an actual thing. Are they that stupid? Are they not educated? Do they not hear about the countless suicides of kids our age and think whoa I should stop doing that? Do they not live in the real world?

Yeah chair lol.
Like, there are kids in my grade who have attempted suicide, how the fuck can you be so blind as to not realize it???

@SaltyLasagna

yeah, I know somebody who genuinely believes that most mental illnesses are just issues with immaturity and that people with mental illnesses weren't raised right and that they should be able to learn how to be normal…

exactly. They're literally blind to the world around them. If they don't stop doing it soon i'm going to give them shit about it and hope they realize what they're doing.

@thehobbit

I can say, from experience, that no one will mind you calling them out on their shit and will probaly support you and be happy that you called them out.

actually you have a really good point. Anytime anyone in my class gets in trouble they just laugh about it.

exactly, it's the same sort of idea. people will laugh it off and appreciate that you said something because im sure that there are others thinking the exact same thing that are too afraid to say something
