“The abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power.” - William Shakespeare.
This is a very straight forward heads up for performers and everyone alike. Why? Cause I can’t bare the fact most people get the upper end without any work done.
Wonder how performing arts and/or events turn out to be so good? Apart from the countless hours of practice, auditions were where it all began to be. In a nutshell, auditions gets the whole event started.
I mean, who’d wanna be surprised with gimmicks or quacks of wannabes and the empty handed promises from several performers. Those horrible performances is a sure thing to get your invitees out of the hall for all those times where you’d need to pack and clean up for the night.
So to speak, power abuse. Escaping auditions are nonetheless the exact same replicated experience of the above mentioned.
From my experience, auditions are meant to judge each individual based on their progress in presenting that specific performance. Take it as a protocol to see whether you’re really prepared.
Auditions could also save you that utter embarassment on stage on performance day should you be not sufficient enough to deliver the performance that particular event is striving for. Having you be the organising party doesn’t make your performance achieve above all, let alone, pass that certain “awesome-factor-prerequisite”.
Heck was I glad to be told upon on my first audition, I never really realise I used to sing off-pitch at a higher key until heard upon - should I let that continue just because, for an example, I’m the organiser of a certain event? …man I’d suck and never realise my flaw(s).
So maybe you’re the kind that would like to show off your talents or “talents” to everyone. Why not show it off to the judges before you show it off to the world? Talents scouts are everywhere ya know.
Ahh, I could go on and on should I want to, but take it from me if you’d wanna plan a successful event -
“Hold an audition, go by the system, realise your power, act within your means, and NEVER allow someone to jump the queue, especially yourself”
