I let out a small laugh, “Your joking.”

The director shakes his head, “Elena, it’s what the people will want. Your characters, Aria and Dae, people want them. It’ll make the show so much better.”

Matt steps in front of me, his arms crossed over his chest, “You can’t expect me to work with, that,” he points to me, “Well at least not in that way.”

The director sighs, “We’re doing it. End of discussi...

“Georgina! Why did they cast us together!? This is ridiculous!”

“Caitlyn, the director wanted some explosive chemistry happening between the two once they become each other’s love interests”

“Ugh, how annoying.”

“Caitlyn, you’ve been doing this for more than a couple of decades, I mean, you’ve been acting since you were like, what, three?”

“Yes and it annoys me when I’m put together with some ...

It was enough that he would have to be in the same play as her but less bearable the fact that she was also one of the main roles. He hated her. They used to know each other from childhood. She bullied him when he was a typically chubby and nerdy looking boy. He had lost that weight and gone to acting school.

This play was going to be the pinnacle turn point in his career. A step on the ladder. A...

This was the one! This was John’s big break! After 11 years of taking any part no matter how small. Being an actor sucked when first starting out. 11 years! Finally here it was. Celebration tonight!

“Wonder who my leading lady will be?” John thought to himself.

Immediately his head popped up with his next thought. This was a very important question. There was only one person he absolutely di...

Author’s Side Note: This is told from both Mai’s perspective and Sakuta’s perspective as well. Also, I know that in the anime “Rascal Does Not Dream Of Bunny Girl Senpai” they are boyfriend and girlfriend, and that they get along perfectly, but I am just trying to be creative though. Okay?

Mai: “I cannot that Sakuta and I got cast as the roles of Bianca (me) and Lucentio (him) in our school’s pro...

“I love you.” I hate you.

“Let me kiss you.” Or slap you.

“I’ll hold you.” Or push you.

I try not to care but

It’s always you....

“Darling, don’t you feel a teensy bit mature to play Juliet? She was only thirteen after all.”

“If I’m too ‘mature’, as you put it, you must be past the age where you could pull off a convincing Romeo’s Grandfather, Darling.”

“A bit harsh Darling, if I may say so. Possibly just a little ‘pot calling the kettle black’ do you feel? One would have thought the Dowager Juliet might have mellowed, like ...

“That man is going to be my what?” Freya screamed at her assistant; the assistant in question only just dodging a thrown vase.

“Well he’s been cast as the male lead and you’re the female lead.”

Freya raised her eyebrows and started tapping her manicured nails against her crossed arm.

Her assistant took a breath before continuing, “and since the play is a romance...,” the assistant trailed of...

Melanie glared at Robert, her hand balled into a tight fist, manicured nails digging into her palm, to prevent herself from reaching out and slapping him right across his smug face.

Robert glared at Melanie, biting the inside of his cheek until he thought it might bleed to keep himself from shouting what a stupid manipulative bitch she was.

Tom, the director, looked at the two of them, squared o...

Melinda grabbed my arm as I was throwing my stuff in my locker after gym. “Kelly! The cast list will be up on the bulletin board outside the choir room after school! I’ll meet you there. Good luck!”

The auditions had been going on every afternoon for a week for the annual musical. This year we were doing “Carousel” and I had tried out for the role of Julie Jordan along with what seemed like ...
