So I have an audition tomorrow.
It was an accident, honest.
I had no intention of starting a project as big as a play so soon after 'As You Like It' ended - work is very, very busy, and Krissa and I have some Doing Summer Stuff time to get in. But I was curious, and curiosity takes you, sooner or later, to Craigslist, where I found this ad.
And I thought...why the hell not?
So tomorrow I have an audition for a web animation pilot with Dan Meth.
The only question is, just how aristocratic an accent are they after? I can do clipped and clear Queen's English no problem, after a cup of tea and a rich tea biscuit to purge myself of any untoward American influences, but when it gets really posh I need to think things through.
John Hurt's rather evil member of the House of Lords in 'King Ralph' is what Krissa and I always use to make each other laugh...say 'cyellebraited hice' (go on....no, really....) and you have the almost obscenely toffish pronunciation of 'celebrated house'. Not sure I could wheel that out without thinking it through beforehand...but hey!
This could be fun.
ooh... merde!
(French for 'break a leg' - not rude.)
Soon you will be discovered. Then you will be the next Hugh Grant (You're British and have the hair)
Preferably without the prostitute in the limo, obvs.
You mean it's ok to have the prozzies out the limo?
Don't forget hairspray,,,you need to hold that flop in place.
Can you link me PLEASE? My Banana Life blog is SO lonely and pathetic.
You just made me say "cyellebraited hice" out loud, in the office. I'm being laughed at.
Best of luck though. Just walk in and say that and you'll have the part sewn up.
Good luck! That sounds like fun.
