Audition: An Update

There were about 10 boys at call back tonight. They lined them all up from tallest to smallest. Owen was the smallest. Then they took the bottom six away. (The top four were too big to be auditioning for Tiny Tim....14 year old range). Owen said they taught them a song from The Christmas Carol (God bless mother....God bless father...) and they had to sing it. Then, they brought the six back. A few minutes later they called back three of the six. Owen was one of those three. He said they had them sing the song again and then walk with a cane. Tiny Tim had a cane, right? So, my guess is that he is in the top three for Tiny Tim! We should know by the end of this weekend. But, I tried to explain to him that even if he didn't get the Tiny Tim part he will be one of the children or part of the ensemble. Which would be equally exciting (and probably a lot less rehearsels for mom!). Stay tuned......

What a fabulous experience! I agree; it'd be best if he could hold off from being the star of the show considering the circumstances (baby!). BUT everything happens for a reason so this is fantastic either way!
