Talent from Colleges
Ridiculous. There’s new talent coming into New York City all the time. But then again, there are also people leaving the business as well. It takes a lot of stamina to stay in the business.
… back to the masses moving into New York …
It is scary to see all of these people come into town. I remember all the talented people from my school alone. There was another girl who wonderfully played all the ingenues in our college productions. Her innocence and quarkiness made her a lovely Sarah Brown in Guys and Dolls. One grad actor was Ado Annie in Oklahoma. Her performance is forever memorable.
Where are these girls now? On broadway. If they are not on broadway, they are always working as leads in great productions.
Having these talents in my past, I get worried when I see all these new faces at auditions. The girls from my school have really established themselves and now more have come.
I so wish I was one of these girls. They have made it to the level I could only dream of. Since I am not at their level yet, I am finding myself in the pool with the next great things just finishing college. I keep praying for the opening for me. In the midtime, the general youth at open auditions remain the same as I continue to get older.
