We chose the actors thru a series of auditions when we started the show.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was lucky - the first eight productions I auditioned for, I got cast.
I didn't want to be known as the reality-show star trying to be an actress, so I kept a lot of the failed auditions to myself.
They were looking for actors - real actors - who could play instruments. There was a lot of improvisation and scene work involved in addition to the music. The auditions went on for a long time.
I never really decided to be an actress, but I got an agent, was called back on every show I auditioned for, and finally decided I was meant to be an actress.
Even when I was little and going on auditions, it was clear who was there because they wanted to be there, and who was there because their stage parents were making them be there. There was a major difference.
I think I was first choice for the part. I don't know - that's what they always tell you anyway. I didn't have to do any audition for the part. Sam saw me in Dinner and the whole thing slipped into place.
I like to say that I didn't choose acting - acting chose me.
It was a lot of auditions and tapings and stuff like that.
Actors were the first people to accept me.
I've auditioned for normal characters. But I never get cast.
