Am I wrong to feel upset?

sopranomom92… I asked my d to check my info and she reminded me of a few things… she auditioned for Footloose first and had told both directors about both auditions. When she had told Seussical director about the Footloose audition, that was when the director told her she would get either Gertrude or one of the trio. Then she cast her as ensemble and had the first readthrough within a day or two. My D was then offered Vi the day of the readthrough. She had not yet accepted either role, and when she told the Seussical Director (whom she had not yet accepted) about Vi, the director was rude to her and even though my D had already decided to go for Vi, that cemented it. She still felt guilty, because that is the way she is, even though no commitment had been made. She was also feeling badly because her younger brother was in the Seussical production… I was there with him watching this from far away. I could see their faces, but she never told me what was said. (She said she remembers that I would have gotten upset…she can’t recall the comments now.) She may have burned some bridges, but so has the director. My D will never audition for anything directed by this woman. (I really wonder what she said to my D!) It has not prevented my D from being in other productions so far… and she has never left a production in which she has been cast and she has accepted. She has always received comments on her commitment, dedication and team work on shows.
