<p>I think we are not supposed to post links, but if you search youtube for “12 bad auditions” there is a hilarious send up of the 12 days of Christmas. There is use of a couple swear words and some naughty hand gestures because they are complaining about really bad auditions so it’s not rated G, and not safe for work. But if you are over 17 and at home it’s pretty funny. The actors are great. The thing that happens on the 12th day really cracked me up.</p>
<p>Just thought that Musical Theater people would appreciate the humor. :-D</p>
<p>OMG I love this video. Thanks for sharing, had a great laugh today. My D went through the college audition process last year–so glad that part is over for now:)</p>
<p>Here is a very funny, mythical acceptance/scholarship letter I found online. A surefire laugh in the middle of all this upcoming stress!</p>
<p>Dear International Applicant to the Class of 2013:</p>
<p>We are delighted to offer you admission to our college, and we are also
awarding you the financial aid you require to attend. As you may be aware,
we subscribe to the Candidates Reply Date Agreement (CRDA), which officially
gives you until May 1 to let us know if you will be enrolling and to submit
a non-refundable deposit. So take the time to carefully evaluate
each of your college decisions and scholarship awards, which is the aim
of the CRDA.</p>
<p>Of course, since we have given you all this money that we intend to give to
someone else if you dont enroll, you should consider yourself to be a very
selfish person if you dont let us know your plans right away. There is
probably a poor student sobbing her eyes out right now because we have put
her on our waiting list, and all you have to do is let us know if you wont be
showing up in September so that she can start smiling again.</p>
<p>Also, theres the issue of housing. If you dont give us your decision
immediately and send us a fat check to reserve your room, you might end up
in a sleeping bag on the floor of the student lounge next fall. In case
the term student lounge sounds appealing to you, please be aware that this
is the place where your fellow freshmen will be making microwave popcorn and listening to loud music into the wee hours of the morning. In addition, you will find a refrigerator in the lounge that probably hasnt been cleaned since before the graduation pizza party last May and which will undoubtedly be growing forms of fungi that could adhere to your clothing and prevent you from passing through immigration to return to your homeland at the end of the term.</p>
<p>So, the choice is yours. You can either give us your enrollment decision
this very minute, even though its 4 a.m where you are at the moment, or
you can wait until the official reply date of May 1, should you choose to
act as irresponsibly as an AIG executive by ignoring the suffering of a
fellow applicant as you take unnecessary time deciding which side of the
student lounge will be the best spot for your sleeping bag.</p>
