<p>Congrats Billy! I’m glad I was hopefully able to persuade you.
Like My Tisch Audition, you have to be aware of “Theater Parents.” Not saying that any of you specifically are, but sometimes people don’t want others to succeed because of their vested interests in something. At my Tisch Audition, parents were rude, they were looking me up and down, they were bragging about how their kids were leads in such and such plays, how they went to Yale for the summer Drama Conservatory. The parents even told me not to practice in the hallway because I was disturbing others working in the same building. But did I listen? No, I literally went to the a bathroom, and practiced for 1 hour locked in a stall. And you want to know how many got accepted out of everyone who was there that day? 2. Myself, and a guy who flew from Colorado who’s parent’s merely dropped him off to audition. None of the braggarts or stage parents’ children got in. Beware Billy, people are going to discourage you to do things so that their children can succeed, or their children can be the only ones standing who have those accolades. If we all supported other people’s children, what chance would ours have?</p>
