Emily Auditions for a Musical

I’m so proud of Emily! Today she auditioned for a musical at church.

She tackled one of the toughest parts and prepared and rehearsed like crazy! As we got to church for her time slot, we said a quick prayer and headed up the stairs. She said, “I feel nervous, but confident!”

Almost as soon as we got there, her name was called and she headed in to the audition room…..alone.

It was like an episode of American Idol. There were four “judges” and little Emily in there.

As a nervous dad watching through the glass on the door, I watched the judges smile as Emily became animated. She got a very nice, “VERY GOOD JOB” in the end from the judges. As we walked away, she said, “I feel less nervous and more confident.”

We’ll find out next week if she gets a part or not. Keep your fingers crossed.

As a side note - this is NOT Emily’s first go-round with theatrics.  She’s been to some drama classes and workshops AND back in 2007/2008 – Em and I spent some time making home movies!   It was lots of fun!  I’ve posted them to the blog under VIDEOS.  Check them out!
