Beauty and the Beast

Wow, I've been away for a while and where I still doubt anyone is reading this I won't let that stop me. So, the most interesting event that has occurred lately are auditions for this years musical. Beauty and the Beast. All. Out. Disney. I was quite shocked by this choice but who doesn't enjoy a good Disney musical? Well... lots of people but that isn't the point. My love of acting once again found my waiting with anticipation outside the audition room. The competition was rife to say the least, girls swarming around me like flies exclaiming their lines with varying success and as my friend put it "I felt like we were in a nursery". But eventually we stumbled into the audition room and performed our piece as far as we know... it went well. 

Then of course there was the singing auditions. I am not the best singer but maybe I should have thought of that before I was sitting in a crowded room listening to a number of people who would get into 'the X Factor' practice their songs. I was one note short of rocking back and forth huddled in a corner. As for the audition it was..... ok. Oh, who am I kidding, it was terrible and an experience I never wish to repeat. Cast list day should be fun. 

Beauty and the beast was my favourite Disney movie. Belle was my ultimate princess mainly because... she wasn't a princess. She was a normal bookworm with a heart of gold and a sense of humour something I found Cinderella and Snow White really lacked. There's a real message to the story too when you think about it, looks don't matter, it's the beauty on the inside that counts. Everyone should remember that a little more.

All my love, Cat named Cat x
