Chapter 24 The Director Is Very Upset

The auditions were held in a dance studio inside the company that was over a thousand square feet insize.The laminated wooden floor was smooth and flat.

The panel of judges sat at the end of the room, in front of the wall.The other three walls of the studiowere completely covered with mirrors.

Francis was watching the auditions with a long face.

Actors walked up to the center of the room one after another and gave it their best shot, but none oftheir performances seemed to move the director.

Francis's face was so gloomy that some of the actors waiting in line wanted to quit right there and then.

"I've heard that Mr.Jackson is the strictest director in the industry, but I didn't expect him to be soscary..."

"I know, right? The actress who just auditioned, Rita, won the Best Supporting Actress award last year.Imean, to me it looked like she did a good job, but Mr.Jackson didn't seem pleased at all.How could henot be impressed with her performance?"

"Exactly! I'm still a student, and my acting skills are nowhere near Rita's.I definitely have no hope.I'dbetter quit..."

Tensions were on edge, and the actors in line whispered worriedly among themselves.

Some of the more timid ones quietly decided to quit.

By this time, Francis was quite vexed.He was waiting to see the audition of the actress recommendedby Jeremy.

Usually, people who wanted to get in through the back door would take the initiative to make a goodimpression on the director by coming up to him and requesting for an audition in a flattering tone.

Unfortunately, Maria did no such thing.

Every now and then, Francis stole a glance at her out of the corner of his eye and found that she wasjust appreciating the performance of the other actors, as if she was a serious audience member or aprofessional judge.

It was the same for the handsome young man standing next to her.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм

Aside from occasionally whispering comments on the performance of the actors, he didn't take anyaction.

"Why hasn't she asked me for a chance to audition yet?" Francis murmured moodily.

He had watched countless actors audition since morning, but he still hadn't found a suitable actress forthe lead role.

In fact, Jeremy had already hinted to Francis long ago that he should cast Lyndsey again for the leadrole, which was not a bad idea.

However, as a director who constantly pursued perfection, Francis still nursed hope that he could replacean actress who was born to play the part of Anne Hade.It was only when Maria walked in that Francisfound the woman who matched his expectations, at least in terms of appearance and temperament, toplay the part of Anne.

"If her acting skill is better than her appearance...No...As long as she has been trained in professionalacting...No...As long as she has the willingness to learn, I can teach her slowly..."

As the auditions droned on and Francis grew increasingly dissatisfied with the actors in front of him, helowered his requirements for Maria again and again.

In the end, Francis decided that as long as Maria worked hard and wanted to learn, then even if shewas a newcomer who had never been trained in acting before, he would cast her for the lead role andpersonally teach her everything she needed to know about acting.

While Francis was burning with anxiety, Maria seemed to be blissfully unaware of it.

There were even several times when Francis noticed Maria glancing at the door with her toes pointedtowards it.

In order to improve his craft, Francis had studied a bit of psychology.

Judging by Maria's stance, he knew that she wanted to leave already.

But how could she leave? No way! She hadn't even changed into a costume and given her audition yet!Francis was really frustrated.

When was this young lady going to begin her performance? Didn't she want to get in through the backdoor? What was she waiting for? Did she perhaps get scared after hearing Francis’ phone call withJeremy just now?

"Lyndsey, there are many actors who did a good job just now.I think they're suitable for some of thesupporting roles in the show.Please give this name list to Jeremy and Mr.Jackson for their reference."

After stepping into the studio, Maria had watched the auditions of more than a hundred actors.

Some of them were actors signed to Yeez Entertainment, some of them were experienced actors fromother companies, and the rest were newcomers with great potential.

Although none of them were good enough to be cast as the protagonists, Maria found a lot of them tobe suitable to play the distinct supporting roles.

Every time Maria mentioned an actor's name and their possible corresponding role in the play, Lyndseyimmediately made a note of it on her phone.

While listening to Maria's judgment, Lyndsey was secretly ecstatic.

In her heart, she couldn't help but squeal, "Mia is awesome!"
