I got my Equity card from an audition out of Backstage. We did 'Guys and Dolls' and 'Kismet.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I got my Equity card at 24 at the Guthrie Theatre in Minneapolis, and they asked me to join the company. I was content and happy working in the company there for a long while until I really started to feel as if I hit a bit of a glass ceiling artistically.
I was going out for absolutely everything that was in Backstage.
I grew up around backstage, and that clinched it for me.
My first audition was for a commercial for the lottery. I didn't get it, so I hate the lottery.
I got my Equity Card from Berkeley Rep when I was 22 years old. I was cast in David Saar's 'The Yellow Boat.'
The first audition my manger sent me on was 'The Hunger Games,' and I got the role.
Any time you audition and get it, you earned it.
I wanted to be in a band that shared ideas and were in it together.
I got my Equity Card with my Broadway debut when I did 'Rent.' I was in high school, and I came to New York to do that show.
I was making stickers for guys' bands. I was in the front row photographing bands, booking bands, doing all of the kind of backstage stuff, and I didn't even think for a second I could do it, and then I saw Babes in Toyland, and all that changed.
