So...Hey! I'm Aaron.
I suppose I'll just jump in and say life's not too bad! It's summer break and there's not too much to do! I've done a lot of yard work. And that's one thing that looks like it'll be fairly constant this summer.
So, a little bit about myself. I am a Theatre Major with a Music Minor at Murray State University. I love it. I love theatre and music and combining them is one of my favorite things in the world. Musical theatre is more than just a silly past time or a like. It's a passion. I mean, I like ALL theatre, but musical theatre just speaks to me differently.
Anyways, I'm up in New York with my family, and there's not a whole lot to do here. I didn't grow up here so I don't really know anyone, which makes things difficult. I've met some of my brother's friends and they're really cool. It'd be nice to have some friends of my own up here though. However, one thing I get to do in the summers is audition for shows in NYC. It's really good practice, plus I don't have to worry about anxiety on my first audition after graduating anymore because I will have done it before. This summer, I auditioned for the national tour of Wizard of Oz. I loved dancing at the audition. It was SO much fun. I wasn't kept to sing though. It was kinda a bummer. I did do an audition for the national tour of Grease on Monday though. It went really well. The dancing was the most intense thing I've ever done: worse than Midwest, worse than the combination I made people do for Music Man auditions as school. It was SO much fun though. I was kept to sing for this audition so I mean, at least I was seen. And come to find out, Carole Demas (the ORIGINAL Sandy in the original Broadway production) was there to watch the dancing and singing. She was REALLY sweet and the entire experience was SO much fun. But that's the stuff that I'm doing this summer. There are a few more auditions I can go to luckily. But I need to find stuff to do to take up my time. If anyone has any suggestions, please tell me!!! lol...
But I think this is sufficient for an initial post. Nothing much has really happened so I don't have too much to talk about. Except, every time I go into the city, I see someone famous. (I've walked past Cory Monteith, Telly Leung, and sang for Carole Demas.) Not too much going on though. :)
So... I just figured I'd add a picture of one of my favorite shows that I've done. It was Godspell at MSU in 2008!
