This past week, I had the most amazing time playing the Tin Man in a local production of the Wizard of Oz. We rehearsed for a month and a half, performed five shows in three days, and had a whole bunch of fun together! Here are a few things I took away from my time with my 38 castmates:
- Give your best effort, no matter the circumstances I originally auditioned for the role of Dorothy, and I'll be honest, when I didn't get the part, I was a little disappointed. But despite my initial disappointment, I decided to do my best and really work hard on the role I did have. Besides, it was still a really great role. I ended up having a lot of fun as the Tin Man, and in the end, I wouldn't have traded it for any other role. - Don't worry about petty drama As with any show, there was a lot of drama backstage. I just learned how ignore everything and keep working hard on my role, and in the end, I came out on top. When you focus on things that aren't important, you aren't at your best. I learned how to keep myself focused, and in the end, I wasn't distracted. - Friendship is amazing In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy learns how incredible true friends can be. Throughout my time in the Wizard of Oz, I became great friends with my fellow actors and actresses, and we all learned so much together. We grew together, we laughed together, we worked hard together. We had an amazing time together, and we grew closer than ever.
