Just wanted to give a shout out to my girl, Jasmine, whom William Morris is apparantly showing interest in. It's almost certain that they are getting her an interview for The Color Purple!! Woohoo!! :)

Send good thoughts, she NEEDS to make it!

To look at her, she reminds me of a young Phylicia Rashad.

Oh how cool would that be to play LaChaze's sister!!!

The two roles my friend has under belt so far are Ti Moune and Sarah(understudy) in Ragtime national tour...

I wonder, with "Saycon's" part in Color Purple being auditioned for, if this means she's stepping up to be Elphie in Wicked instead?

OK, so they told the person who arranged her audition that they weren't going to call her back for that particular role, but possibly another - they liked her audition a lot (she sang Daddys Son from Ragtime) but didn't think she was entirely age appropriate for the part, or something like that... she is going to find out more later.

Thanks eslgr8 - I think she felt really good about it. She was saying how she walked in feeling really cute until she saw all the other girls there that looked JUST like her, only 20 pounds thinner... she blocked them out but, yeah, it's tough.

This has totally happened to me for 2 B'way shows. Stuck in callbacks for ages. At the end of the day, all you can do is prepare as much as possible and do your thing. There are TOO many factors that are out of your control- your look, age, weight, height, etc. etc. etc.

But, getting seen by these people can always lead to something else.

Best of luck to your friend!
