Chicago MT Unified Auditions - Roll Call

<p>Hey, redscorpian, staying indoors is DEFINITELY my plan!!!</p>

<p>Driving in from So central WI, staying at the PHH from Sat until Wed. D has 12 schools scheduled for audition. They’re spaced out pretty well time-wise, we just hope that her voice holds up and she stays healthy. Purell, anyone?</p>

<p>Packing for Chicago and feeling thankful we don’t have a layover in the southeast! Good grief, the weather is really trying to make this difficult, isn’t it? Fingers crossed that Chicago stays clear enough for this weekend’s flights and drives. Safe travels, everyone! @cheeseheadmike, I’ve got a case of Purell and baggies full of hospital strength disinfectant wipes and I know how to use 'em! Since we arrive Thurs night, I’ll wipe down all the elevator buttons for you all. :smiley: </p>

<p>My D will be helping with the Roosevelt auditions on Monday morning and I will be thinking of you all from home! Break a leg to all your kiddos!</p>

<p>As mentioned on the snow post, my D and I (dad) are driving in from central OH on Sunday, staying at PHH. Leaving Tuesday. She has Ball State, Rider, and looking for walkins. See you all soon!</p>

<p>I’m jealous now, isn’t anyone coming to Otterbein with me on Saturday? :(|) </p>

<p>MTMajor, my son can meet up with you guys if you want–just let me know and I’ll talk to him! He isn’t one of the kids who work at auditions, but he’ll be around. Fingers crossed that you have good weather this weekend!</p>

<p>@mtmajorcook, looks like you’re on your own this weekend!</p>

<p>MTMajorCook - we actually live just a few miles from Otterbein, but won’t see you there. D didn’t pass the prescreen for them so we’ll be at Ohio Northern on Saturday. Then to Chicago on Sunday. Lots of driving this weekend. Enjoy Otterbein, it’s a neat place. Our kids have been there for a variety of functions over the years. D has a friend/former classmate who is a theater tech major there. </p>

<p>Break legs Ds and Ss!!! I’m jealous too as I must remain in Maine. Hope you all have the best of times. If you see a wild eyed dad and a happy, oblivious guy, that’s my crew!</p>

<p>I shall be in Chicago this week with my son. He has a show on Sunday afternoon, so we will drive from MI on Sunday evening. He has 6 auditions, spread nicely across the three days. We drive home Thursday morning, he has a show Thursday night, then we are at Baldwin Wallace on Friday.</p>

<p>MTMajorCook, our son is helping with Otterbein’s auditions tomorrow. He would be happy to meet up with you folks separately also if you’d like. He has some rehearsals, but I know he’d be happy to visit with you. He also has a PCLO audition scheduled in March? so I’m sure he’d like to see a familiar face if your son is there the same day - not sure if locals are the same day. Anyway, feel free to PM me. Break a Leg to all for the weekend! </p>

<p>BAL everyone at Chicago Unifieds. Wish we were going just so I could have brought donuts! :)<3</p>

<p>Safe travels and BAL to all at Chicago Unifieds! Looking forward to lots of good stories! No parents behaving badly at NY Unifieds, guess this cycle just has a bunch of well behaved adults (and super talented kids!). Happy the hasn’t been any drama, I have enough angst dealing with the audition/decision process as it is!!! D still cool as a cucumber, how do they do this?!?!</p>

<p>Wicked snow is approaching Chicago…safe travels everyone!</p>

<p>I have not seen ANY germbanas here at the Palmer House. Just sayin’.</p>

<p>We left Chicago (driving) about noon and got home in central OH about an hour ago. Did have stops for meal, gas, and sanity, but still took much longer than normal. Snow got very bad at OH border and for most of the way from there. </p>

<p>Hope others have safe travels, it was getting ugly. Enjoyed our time at Unifieds though. </p>

<p>A little off topic, but does anyone know if Hartt has an info session before the audition? </p>

<p>Yes, they had my D’s this morning at 8:30, dance call at 9:00, audition at 10:00. Hope that helps!</p>

<p>My daughter is straight acting and they gave her a time of 11:00 so I just wonder if there is something before that. Called and can’t get a reply. I have a feeling they are closed due to the weather.</p>
