Scheduling auditions

It is always risky in the snow belt especially when it comes to travelling in that time of year. One of the biggest concerns is the obvious one, even leaving out the weather, if back to back auditions like that will impact how the kid plays. Some kids thrive on that, they get ‘into the zone’ and want to stay there, others get worn out and tired.

We had an experience like that, my S had an audition at Colburn on a Thursday, which was an all day thing, then we had to fly a red eye to Boston for his audition at NEC, which originally was scheduled at like 10am, but was moved to 2 or so. We landed around 8am, were able to check into the hotel fortunately, and got a little rest, but it was pretty stressful.
