My school has a Theatre Company for Grade 11 and 12 students and the auditions for it were held recently. I'm not much of an actor, but my friends convinced me to audition so I did.
Anyway, part of the audition was singing a song, and since I'm a terrible singer I decided to sing a song from a musical that I wrote called Fetal Attraction. I sang the song and the drama teachers loved it. They thought it was hilarious-- and while I didn't get into Theatre Company, (obviously) the drama department wants to buy my musical and produce it for next year's show! I even get a hand in directing it!
The musical itself is about two fetuses that are growing inside the same womb and fall in love, not realizing until they're born that they can't be together because they're siblings. I wrote the songs myself-- the lyrics and scores-- and it's quite funny, if I do say so myself.
So, even though I got rejected from Theatre Company (which is probably a good thing seeing as how I'm a terrible actor) --I'm still going to be an integral part of the production. I'd say that the cloud in this case has a very nice silver lining.
