You know you’ve felt\u00a0all\u00a0<\/em>of these at some point in your time as an actor. \u00a0#Feelings<\/p>\n

Motivation<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

Just saw <\/span>Hamilton <\/span><\/i>on Broadway. Gonna kill it at my next audition just like Lin-Manuel Miranda.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Excitement<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

An audition posting! Time to find the perfect outfit and rehearse my audition song.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Anxiety<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

OMG, which headshot should I choose from my headshot session? WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Frustration<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

Memorizing this audition monologue is literally killing me.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Elation<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

I got cast? I got cast! AND I AM THE LEAD. YAS.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Grateful<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

My friends got cast, too! Yussssss.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Disbelief<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

WHAT! You\u2019re kidding me. How am I going to memorize this many lines?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Resignation<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

Rehearsals rule my life, and therefore I have no life.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Contentment<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

I\u2019ve finally memorized all my lines. Time to binge watch Stranger Things\u00a0<\/em>on\u00a0Netflix.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Exhaustion<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

#TechWeek<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Confidence<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

Opening night! Makeup flawless; wig pinned; shoes snug; costume on point. IT\u2019S GO TIME.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Panic<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

WHAT IS MY LINE.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Relief<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

Remembered my line. Didn’t run offstage crying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Pride<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

Standing O!\u00a0#FIERCE<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Love<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>

What would I do without this show and these people and this feeling? #AllTheFeels<\/span><\/p>\n
