Can I really do this? I am auditioning for Shady Shakes' shows this year again but I just don't know. Because although they are summer shows, the last month of school and the first month of rehearsals coincide. Which means I will have work, school, and rehearsal at the same time. But I do really miss theatre. But I really really have to finish off strong in this class. It is the only one of the three math classes where the grade actually counts (college transferable).

But I know myself, if I don't audition, I will seriously be kicking myself as I watch the shows this summer and grumble about them. Isn't that fucked up? It is really hard for me to watch theatre without mentally putting myself on stage. What a fucking ego. I think a lot of it is because Shady is still about 50% "friends doing Shakespeare." Better than the 100% it started with, but still. The flip side of that is maybe that's why I keep getting parts with Shady Shakes.

I do already have monologues picked out and memorized and an audition type reserved. It would be seriously ridiculous to not at least audition.

Anyway, not sure what I want as a response, but I don't know... a little encouragement I guess. This really seems to be dragging me down and it should be picking my energy up

Do it! You will feel much worse about yourself if you don't. The life we create is the series of choices we make. Remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books? Your choice to audition means you get to decide the direction your life takes. We all need passion in our life and acting is yours. It is always wonderful to see you on stage. You're good at it, Dave! Besides, we all love hanging out in the woods watching you bring Shakespeare to the masses.
