rm | on auditioning for a Fringe musical

That said, this has inspired an idea for a monologue to write (not to use for myself, just to like submit places I guess, since I generally try to avoid monologues about the business), about the whole post-audition wanting to vomit thing. For me, it's not a _nervous_ reaction, exactly. It's like some weird animal defense mechanism -- like squid or skunks or something. Sort of, "If I vomit on their shoes, perhaps they will become distracted, and then, if I lunge at their throat just right, I can take down my prey or at least get a gig on the National Geographic Channel."
