Number 11: “The Hater” The Hater is known for looking down their nose at everyone else in the audition room. The Hater sees themselves as above the other actors, and comes up with dehumanizing nicknames for them . The Hater is prone to judgement and cynicism. Often, The Hater is annoyed by other people existing. If you are over prepared, under prepared, breathing too loudly, stretching, or even being too friendly, you are sure to annoy The Hater.
Do they ever do chemistry reads with other called back actors at this level?
just got my first understudy gig as “orpheus” in hadestown! this really helped me! thanks 🙏
thank you for this! i gotta film my first ever audition this week and i had absolutely no idea how to do it, this has been so helpful!!
Such great recollections - thank you both! On my first West End audition I was auditioning for West Ends biggest casting director. I was asked to prepare a pop songs and I decided to sing one of my all time favorite songs 'New York State of Mind' - I knew this so well and long before I became an actor - this was was in my very core. I have just been called and as I am walking up the stairs, a friend of mine was coming down and he is a tad upset. He said to me in passing "if he picks up his phone he doesn't like you" this was said with some venom. Well, I walked in knowing I was going to do a great job. I greeted the two auditors and walked over to the accompanist and told him what I was going to sing. I had marked everything well - he said great. I gave him the tempo. I walked over to my spot and I did my slate. Just as I was finishing my slate this guy picked up his phone. The music started and I completely forgot the opening line of the song. I tried again but nothing. I haven't been asked back since. A very small part of me wants to blame him, because I feel what he did was rude and unprofessional. Ultimately, however, it is my fault for not doing what I went in to do. WE learn from these moment.
Excellent video! So amazingly detailed! Thank you for breaking all of those aspects down to a science. Thank you so much for blessing us with this video! Peace and blessings to you both! ❤
I was 51 when my wife heard me sing for the first time, this was in 2012 - we had been together nearly 29 years at the time, and I still sing. My career was going well and then Covid came. I haven't acted since, but I still sing and I still work on my rep - A LOT! I adore performing.

Watching this and hearing the excitement of the audience gave me goosebumps like I was there. You two gave a beautiful account of how magical that night was.
This is great you guys. I'm heading into my first theater in person audition tomorrow morning in YEARS as i've been doing mostly commercials and film lately. This was a perfect pep talk. 😊
👏👏👏👏
This was such an inspirational video. Thank you for sharing your story! I started crying right before you teared up😭😂
Hi guys. I joined Equity after a National NU tour. I've been union since last year. Since that time, I've gotten one union staged reading...that's it. I've paid my bills nannying. I was excited to actually audition for Bway shows, until I'd see those shows advertised months later starring some Hollywood celebrity in the role(s) I auditioned for. I realize now that when I joined the union, though I'd be in the room more, it was so unlikely that I'd get cast because I was competing with celebrities that would sell tickets. Very disheartening and...enlightening. I used to get regularly called back as an NU actor. In a full year of Equity auditions, I've not gotten one Equity callback. Again, very disheartening; so much so, that I've considered returning to a NU status so that I could audition for things i'm interested in--including tours--that I feel like I'd have an actual shot at. So yes, I get in the rooms, yes, I get seen, but that's sort of what my dues currently pay for :/ Your thoughts/feedback?
What a helpful, self-less and generous tutorial! I hope you are successful at whatever you are doing!
Thank you! What an invaluable resource you all have cultivated🙏🏿🙌🏿
Great story.
This video gave me so much life you don’t even know!
Are you guys still here? Lol are you coming back to post more videos? 😢
As a nonunion actor myself, I gotta say, this is true. Since I live in North Carolina, which is a right to work state, not being part of the union allows me to have a lot of freedom, and it's not just broadway shows. There's a lot of anime dubs, video games, commercials, and indie films that are nonunion. Without a SAG card, I get to work in smaller, independent works like student films and B-movies. Lots of benefits of being nonunion.
really good video
“This is a performance not an evaluation” I think has single-handedly cured all my audition nerves 😂 I was always so fkn TERRIFIED of my song rep classes and exams in university and I feel like every audition I’ve been to since then I’ve been associating with that in my mind but that’s so fkn true: it’s not an evaluation. It’s not an assessment. It’s just a performance.
I would be shitting bricks if that happened to me with the wrong train and everything, so awesome it ended up working out
Thank you both so much for the great job you did on this video!!! I've been making self tapes for a long time and after a long series of rejections, so, not getting the jobs, I finally found you. It's valuable good tips I got from you and I'm curious to see if it leads to different results after the implication. I am also following you from today and look forward to more input. Kind regards 😀
What an amazing story.

Tell the guy to shut up!!! Try to listen to your beautiful voice. He ryuins everything!!!
I highly recommend InShot to edit videos directly on your smartphone device, it's a dream.
Hi! I'm new to the self tape scene. Do you do the same slate for both stage and screen? Also, do you say what the piece you are doing is? Like "Hi! I'm James Spangler and I'll be singing What More Can I Say". Thanks for all of your great information and advice!
What an amazing story! Thanks so much for sharing this. And I love the statement if it is meant for me, it will be. This was so inspiring! Thank you so much for your vulnerability and honesty. Truly special!
Thank you for these tips. The one with the 90 secs is really crucial. Could you please help me with the Math as I seem to be not that good, How to count the right bar quantity if we have 12/8 or 6/8? It is more common with jazz but happened to my audition songs :( So, the only way, I see now is just to put the timer on and measure how much suits in 90 sec.
❤️
You're amazing! thank you =)
Thank you for such good words ❤ can you talk more about your opera background and why you made the switch? I’ve also been trained in opera and I still want to pursue that… but also musical theater 👀
That was incredible! I can’t believe Austin needed to be able to play, sing, rap and teach! Sounds… stressful, lol! But also, amazing to be able to do it. We really lose something by not seeing the orchestra when we watch these shows. ✨✨ Love this channel you two… just getting into it, and I see that I’m late! Please come back! Lol
Excellent video. One thing I've found VERY effective when asked for a 2nd song is to give them two choices: "I have Don't Be the Bunny from Urinetown, and My Name from Oliver! Which would you like?" I swear, the casting staff get excited over having a choice, and that puts them in a good mood. "Oh, do Don't Be the Bunny!"
Hey, can we contact the casting director even if we're not contacted by them and act out a scene by ourself? Thank you so much for this video, this was so good.
Did you purposely name the dog “Bella” after the show “Beautiful”?
Have a good movie dancing I noticed steps on and move any production
My name j o e y g r o u s e I was in a play addition I got a job for theater At a four years I've done a stage manager before And casting director costume designer hair and makeup
Question. Have you found any natural remedies for your reflux? I've been using omeprazole but I know doctors caution against long term use so I'm getting a bit worried about it
Great video!
