'Rocky Horror show' - Unit 8 Audition
Today in our project workshop lessons we had auditions for our upcoming production of 'Rocky Horror Show', I auditioned with the part of Frank 'n' Furter in mind. We had to prepare a monologue and a song; I prepared a monologue called 'Mind Trick' from the play 'Mind Trick' and 'Don't Rain on my Parade' from the musical 'Funny Girl'. I rehearsed the pieces over the weekend and learnt my monologue as I hadn't studied it before, however I have been signing the song for years, so I felt confident with it. We had to give feedback to other class mates auditions and give them one positive comment, one piece of constructive criticism and say which role in the show we think would be best suited for them. After performing my song and then my monologue I looked at the feedback my classmates had given me.
Feedback for my song:
WWW:
- good projection
- good characterisation
- good at sustaining long notes
- strong vocals
- good diction
- presented confidently
EBI:
- try not to sway whilst singing
- connect with lyrics more
Feedback for my monologue:
WWW:
- connected with the audience well and made them feel apart of the monologue
- good characterisation
- good pace and timing
- good diction and pronunciation
- confident in delivery
EBI:
- needs to flow more
- have more still moments
- more eye contact
- have meaning behind behind the words

My personal feedback:
In my opinion my audition was successful and I think I cam across confident and well prepared. I picked high energy, challenging song and a contrasting monologue. I think during both my song and my monologue i had good diction, projection and characterisation. But next time I would like to move around more during my song and monologue, so that I use the space better. I think my acting and signing are both strong and that I would be a good fit for the part I auditioned for. I also think i prepared myself well for the audition and was open to any critical feedback my class mates had to offer.
