ROUND 2

Autumn showed up for round 2 of ANNIE auditions ready to dance her little heart out. Little did we know that she would also show up the very youngest kid still in the running. Autumn was the only six-year-old that passed the vocal audition...the next youngest dancer on day two was eight. Autumn was not at all intimidated by all of those older girls, and she just went in and did her very best. For those of you with little girls in dance you know that two years dance experience can make a big difference. The number of returning girls was right around 50, most of them were local, but a few were called back from Salt Lake, LA, and Chicago auditions. We have been sent home to await out another round of call-backs for line reading next Saturday. We should hear by about Friday one way or another. Because Autumn was the smallest girl at the dance auditions, if she does not get called in to read for the role of the smallest orphan "Molly" she will most likely be done. Autumn has been so amazing through this process. I only wish that I had half the confidence and bravery that she does. Good Luck Autumn or should I say "MOLLY" I love you girl!
