Captain Scrotum 53 Posted April 24, 2012 I have an audition for a musical coming up in a few weeks. This is my second one. I made a topic a while ago about my first one (only got one reply - thankyou AnsemTheWise ). Anyway, it didn't go too well. I didn't feel prepared, and I was incredibly nervous, double that when I happened to be called up first . I sort of stuffed up my song, and didn't sing it as well as I could have. My nerves must have shown, but thankfully I got a chorus part. Anyway, this one I'm determined to ace my audition, and beat the nerves. I'm not sure what I wanna sing yet. I was thinking maybe something by Duran Duran, as I've really got into them lately, and I think I would do well on one of their songs. So anybody advice would be greatly appreciated. If you have experience and wanna lend a few tips, even better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 513 Posted April 24, 2012 Calm down, and make sure you speak slowly, clearly, and loudly. I completely flubbed up an audition because I was super nervous and sped through all of my lines. :> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leaxel 178 Posted April 24, 2012 Own the stage! Be calm, speak clear and laud, and show them how much you want a good part. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weedanort 8,787 Posted April 24, 2012 The first times you go to the stage can put you into a lot of stress. But don't worry, after a while you'll get used to it and you won't feel any nerves at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Always 309 Posted April 24, 2012 What kind of show is it that you're auditioning for? I would recommend a broadway song over something by, say, Duran Duran for almost any musical audition. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
