Eric and I did our auditions for Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens in Tampa on Friday.
At one point during the auditions everyone was separated into groups of ten
(Eric and I got separated) and marched out onstage in front of regular Busch
Garden visitors, and told to do some audition material based on requests of
the judges. I'll gloss through it here..
First, we were told to line-up along the edge of the stage, and imagine that
there's a pile of books where we were standing, then, across the stage, we
were to imagine a large bookshelf. THEN we were directed to take one book
at a time and place it into the shelving in the manner as dictated by the
main judge.
Our first motivation was to play the role of criminally-insane dangerous
folks doing the task. Ok, so that was a REAL stretch for me...I mean,
basically, I pretended that I HAD to do this, and that I had to pay to do
this, and that all of my money was going into a N'Sync Retirement fund, and
that they were going to play a special free concert in appreciation for our
hard efforts. I tell you, I looked FURIOUSLY PISSED while feverently
scanning around for the person I could blame for my situation, while
stacking the books and growling my frustration! Friday, August 9 from 5 PM - 10 PM, The casting will take place in the Entertainment Department
Rehearsal Halls located at 3605 East Bougainvillea Avenue in Tampa, Florida.
(Essentially, it's the back door to Busch Gardens.)
There's a security guard there that will point out the entertainment center
to anyone who asks.
Don't forget! Email me to let me know you're auditioning BEFORE you go,
(assuming you want a shot at a free $50!)
See ya'll there!

Saturday, August 10 from Noon - 8 PM,
