So recently my school had auditions for a play and I didn’t audition because I missed auditions but my director (also band and choir teacher) had me try out at the end of class. I got a small role as a maid who is in 1 scene with little lines. This girl got a slightly larger role than me and is in like every fish scene but she doesn’t have a named role. So she started throwing a massive fit and started screaming at me that it was my fault that because I missed it and had to audition in class it made the director think differently. I told her I didn’t and was happy with the small role I got. She also screamed at me that it was also my fault because I had just played a main role in the middle school musical as a high schooker (I only did because they didn’t have enough people try out). This is a high school musical and she is a senior acting like this time a Sophomore. After a while I got sick and tired of it and told her to suck it as well as saying that she should be happy she got any role at all because she didn’t have to be chooses and she started screaming and crying and stormed off. She said I was being an asshole and deserved to be pushed into anything that would hurt. So am I truly the asshole or is she being over dramatic?
NTA. I direct high school shows. The reality of casting is that you can’t always get the role you want. The other student is way out of line.
NTA.
Small roles are important. Small people, not so much.
NTA, that’s just showbiz.
100% NTA
That other girl is being incredibly overdramatic
Like, seriously, she is the AH and needs to learn to act her age
As an actor- she’s being beyond melodramatic. You win some, you lose some. NTA
This was a threat. Tell your teacher.
I definitely did and age still didn’t get kicked off the cast 😒
