SOM Kickoff is a Success

Wow!  It was great seeing so many excited people at the kickoff and the first day of auditions!  Sorry for the long day waiting in line.  I couldn't believe how many people came out for this show!  Who would have guessed that we'd have 36 girls auditioning for the part of Brigitta and Louisa!  I am truly blown away and super excited about all the talent that I saw.  I can't wait for Monday's auditions.

Stay tuned to this blog.  I will be posting callbacks here right after Monday's auditions.  I hope to have them posted by 11:00 PM on Monday night.  Remember, if you don't get called back, it doesn't mean you didn't get the part.  Callbacks will be on Tuesday evening at 6PM in the music room again.

Thanks again to all of you that auditioned.  I know it can be kind of stressfull and nervewracking!  You all did an amazing job and should be proud of yourselves!

Climb EVERY mountain!
